That's a beautiful machine you got there, I love that paint scheme and am very envious.

Somebody will be along shortly to help you with your incontinence.
Your not alone anymore !

The bloke you picked up yesterday, I assume thats him next to the bike...

Seems a nice chap, but I've never seen one hanging round a farmhouse before.

Great bike you'll love it. @tu*

Cheers fellas.

Been reading through this thread http://www.bikersoracle.com/blackbird/forum/showthread.php?t=49679&highlight=handlebar+shake

as I'm having the same issue. Once I have some time I'll go out and make sure the pressures are 42 and do an luggage on/off test and see what happens.
After that it seems headstock bearings and rear shock spacers have also been suggested.

Thanks

You ain't gonna fit in here...
You gotta be fat and fifty+....8rfl@

Welcome, all the same..cracking colour scheme.@tu*

P.S. dump the top box unless you're planning to take a pillion regularly.

Vous ne vais pas ma place ici ...

Post-scriptum vider la bo?te en haut ? moins que vous avez l'intention de prendre un passager r?guli?rement.

Do you fit in anywhere? 8rfl@

John (jaws) will have trouble with those colours, he swears he's never seen my bike, and I've ridden right past him. Perhaps the USA use John to test their stealth technology?

Be careful with any scratches, I've got a tiny one on the tank, and can't figure out how to 'polish' it off. So I got a tank cover.

Top box makes the bike a little unstable throttle-off sitting up at about 50+. Feels like the rumble strip down the side of a motorway, only it's the handlebars shaking faster than scooby doo's head. After the initial fear has subsided it's quite interesting to watch, and simply grabbing the bars stops it.

As much as it pains me to say it, some bloke called Andy has the best idea: just use it, day in day out and enjoy.
