JimR Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 is the 'hinge frame effect' speed wobble ?? when fron wheal jumps from left to right ?? if so ye lol had it when i rode a 250cc crosser sh*t my self lol but managed to controle it nope ! its where going around a corner the rear end of the bike moves to either the right or left (dependant on the corner taken) and produces a strange effect to the rear end ... like the S/A has turned thro a few degrees. The front wheel/bars moving left to right was called a 'tank slapper' (some what different to an old slapper you pick up in a club ) which unchecked could remove the lock stops & the forks could slap the tank !

kendo phil Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 On a 33bhp restiriction I guess that you have passed in the last 2 years, meaning that 6 points and your licence is gone. Last time I was up around rugby I saw 2 cop cars parked on the M1, one with the hair drier pointed at traffic. The police would take great delight in throwing the book at you for that speed.
