just check your tyres for the tell tale coloured goo and change tyres when you're not happy with the "coloured goo spot count"..................

better than being stranded with a flat tyre, but that's just my opinion Cool

Had a set of heidanau tyres fitted today which seems to have sorted my handeling iossues as well and the handle bars dont wobble when you let go with 1 hand so hopefully this should have sorted it

I have been experiencing tyre wear on the right hand side of my front tyre. The tyre is a Bridgestone Hoop and I have not had any problems with it before this. The unsual thing is that it is not the usual wear on one side, it has worn unevenly and made the tyre 'wavy', but ONLY on the right hand side!

It seems (by the look of it) like it is caused by the now legendary GTS steering wobble, which has become a bit more violent recently

I suspect this to be a bearing failure but just wondered if anybody has heard- of/had/witnessed the same problem and can shed any light on the subject before it goes into the dealer.
