Hi,

Wondering whether anyone else has experienced this?  At low speed, i.e. moving through traffic in the mornings, I'm frequently feeling like the bike is in a groove.  It almost wants to track into vehicles at times!  I've not felt it on other bikes in the past.  Tyres only have around 5k on, so don't believe it's them.  Bike has never been in an accident.  Nothing feels loose, i.e. bearings, etc.  I've had a dealer take a look and they tell me everything's fine - but I'm not convinced.  Played with tyre pressure, no difference.

At one point I thought it was just the center crown of the road, but it seems to happen on flat sections also.

Any ideas / suggestions?
