As for the wobble, please check your tyre pressure, on these bikes the lower the better, specially if you are a healthy big bloke. After you try different pressure to see which one works do check your headrace to see is not overtight and that all your bearings are nice and smooth. Hold your front brake engage first gear and with a little throttle, gently release the clutch to see if there is front to back wobble in the in the handlebars, there shouldn't be, if there is, see a Yamaha mechanic.

Good luck

and.... Oi!! This is not a rizla suzuky thou k9, so if you got to 95mph apologize and ride properly not above national speed limits!


Ha Ha
My rizla thou is a k2 guv dynoed with 192 bhp and even at 160mph,7000rpm(on private roads) is as steady as a rock.And trust me this yam is going to need to go faster than 95 if it wants to be part of my bike /car collection.I can't see that my mate who doe's my tyres put to much air in it but it costs nothing to try it and yes i will check the head stock bearings.
As for letting a yamaha mechanic touch it i would have to slap your face with a gaunlet for even suggesting such a thing
