Hi

I've got a 1997 Vmax and just replaced the fork oil and front springs for progressive springs. They are much more solid,,,,but,,,, I don't want to ride the bike as the forks now feel like they are bending somewhere in the middle!! What could be wrong? I know this isn't much information to go on but any suggestion would be helpful.

Thanks

P

completely drain the forks of oil and put in the correct amout of oil and the correct thickness.
