            according to you what is the cause of the wobble..? is the wobble starts everytime you hit 100+kmph or is it hapens only on specific roads ..?

            1> Check fork for any oil leack and also check wheel alignment and wheel bearing for any defect .

            2> check tyres for any Defect in it and keep an eye on Air pressure . Generally all puncture repair guys overfill your tyres without informing you soe it should be 29psi for front and 30-32psi for Rear tyre (on stock tyre setup) . Tyres should be worm before checking air presure least ride out for 2-4kms .
            Its not enough to know how to twist the throttle; you must have judgement to know when and where to do it.

                i suggested to him as per manual yes its ok but i feel 23 @ front is too low and keep least 26psi for front. Why are you keeping such low air pressure @ front..? are you in stinting..?

                  well brother, suggest me what pressure to keep accoding to following consequences :
                  1. Many path holes i have to encounter per day. about 3 Kms of path holes.
                  2. I ride alone most of the time.
                  3. Speed breakers in here is over 8-9 inches height.
                  Now suggest me.

                    The bike has done more than 110 previously..it never used to wobble..even when rode with a tight grip...but this has started to happen after the dry bolt under the engine came off resulting in the engine oil emptying,,It was sorted out and new engine oil was filled...I know this might be dumb...but does the aforementioned incident have anything to do with wobbling?...btw it has happened on a particular road

                      May be road is not flat.
                      Just in case check air pressure it will wobble if it s less and get sprocket rubbers checked.

                        • As per manual it is 25psi in front & 28 psi in rear tires if single rider.
                          In case of pillion, then 26psi in front & 32psi in rear.
