I thought my 7 was doing that, then i realised most of the time, im not in the middle of the seat for some reason, sat in the middle and it stopped doing itHemiDuty wrote:Geez I would hate to let him near the GPX. It steers to the right driving down the road, he would never let it leave!

Gave me final run down of the damage done from the two crashes its suffered in its life.
Fork leg bent
Fork tubes bent
Front axle bent
Front disk 40thou out.
Triple clamps twisted
Frame out (shortened wheelbase, altered rake?)
Swing arm twisted
Subframe bent
Left clip on bent
Snapped left foot peg bracket.
But now its all fixed.
I picked it up this morning. Cost me $600.
I just have to put it all back together.

did exactly this to one of my bikes a few years ago......loosened all triple-clamp bolts, put the smallest bit of pressure on the bars and *TWANG* went the front end.....something was obviously amisssmek wrote:hehe after. I'm not actually sure what they did to fix it. guessing untightening all the bolts and then tightening them again or something like that.
