front seems to bounce
Hi,
I spent some time riding today. I noticed the front seems to bounce up and down like I am going over bumps. The bike has always been like this but I thought it was just the roads I was driving on to and from work. Any Ideas?
Thanks

RE: front seems to bounce
You might check the tire pressure, and the atmospheric air in the shocks as well. Jack up the bike and open up the bleeder screws on the top. Other than that I'm not sure. My 1999 Dodge 2500 has a weird hop on the back end when slowing down to 35 I haven't figured that out yet. GRRRRR I hate when that happens.[:@]

check the tire see if its out of round, u might have a high spot in the tire if so the dealer will replace it as a defect under warranty. if not the tire checkto seeif the rimis bent or if the spokes are loose they might need tobe trued.

I just put a new Kenda 270 on mine a 3.25 x21 and it bounced pretty bad so I put a 3.00 x 21 Kenda 270 on it only $29 and its smooth as glass again it was a bad tire but not worth sending back for me since there so cheap anyway......
