Not sure whats going on... the ride has become really bumpy too...

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

Tank Foam...it makes all the difference

or if it's still a problem Yak fat is your friend

i think its because they've swapped your 10 for a 6...

Its that rear fender, air is getting trapped there and slowing you down

Definately the lack of rim-stickers.

could be the red thing hanging off the fairing or the photo chop

Might be the fact somebody put a set of Hyosung rims on it .....

what happens if they run out of sinc

My bike is slow after changing tires....

I think I found the problem.

They must have change the flux capacitor on you as well hence why the bike is slow

I bet you went from sports to touring tires. I've normally found that touring tires have stiffer side walls making the ride bumpier and sports tires generally give you a softer ride and greater feedback of what the tire is doing on the road.

Sound advice but I think this might have been a pisstake thread .

Just check their location first. If they are in Victoria, the thread has anything to do with riding and there are no pic's....
then it is a pisstake
