Like many of us not happy with the front end bounce. got my Racetech tuner to put .85 springs and gold valves for comp and rebound with a much improved feeling from the front. The bounce back over anything not smooth was still there. Then remembered my 07 Multi, same issue. most of the hand smacking and bounce is caused by the rubber bar mounts so I made up 4 washers, one each top and bottom to take the rubber mounted bush out of play and clamp the risers firmly to the triple clamp. First class result, more direct feel from the front tyre, steering sharpened, nice and smooth over all but the real sharp edged bumps. Only downside is a slight increase engine vibes coming through which I plan to address with heavier bar end weights, but for now front end job done.
