- What does handle badly mean, what is the condition of the bike, is it chopped, neck bearings are always suspect to me. Tire pressure, tire alighnment, bad or broken shocks and shock mounts, upper motormount broken,
DOes the bike have a wobble in high speed sweeps? Thats shocks, check the rear swing arm for proper torque, check the bearins, makes for a fun wobble. check your spacers on the rear and front wheeels.
