Info :
I am 100% new to the DRZ , fitted a new rear tyre , Dunlop D 606 , bike still has original front tyre...bike only has 4600 odd km's on .

The previous owner possibly fiddled with suspension settings , I am not sure.

Took the bike for it's first good ride on Sunday , and the front end just feels completely wrong...as skittish as hell and when cornering on sand the front end keeps wanting to wash out.

There must be a couple of reasons for the way the bike is reacting....can even be my heavy right wrist :mwink:

Am going top reset both back and front suspension to factory settings and start from there.

Anybody in the know:
Could the front tyre be to blame
Have you perhaps experienced the same and managed to get it sorted ?

Lastly , please note ....I love this scooter......as I have said before , it is going to get me into serious trouble , BUT , I must also add , I think it is going to help me out of serious trouble as well :peepwall:
