nicholas.badger Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Has anyone else experienced the handle bars shaking on their xj600s diversion? It happened when i took my hand off the handlebars to stretch my back as my backpack was quite heavy. I was going around 30 mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Check your wheel balance and the state of your bearings, head stock and wheel bearings, to make sure they are not worn then see if you have lost a weigh from the wheel from the last time the wheel was balanced, they are only stick on things and can fall of if you power wash your bike. Nothing worse than a tank slapper especially if you doing any real speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Check your tyres for damage, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iandouglas Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 but actually they just do that, when it happened to me in a bad way on an xj600n there was a strong cross wind, thing is, apart from the recommendations above, to keep a reasonably firm grip on the handlebars when riding.
