I have found one fault at this point. (Finally!). While leaned over fairly hard, 50-60 MPH on a long left hand turn at a highway cloverleaf, so a long almost 360 degree turn, there were a series of consistent undulations in the surface. I'm thinking I was feeling the fork tubes flexing. It had a pumping feel at the bars, the forks couldn't seem to deal with the heavy side loading in that circumstance.

That has been the only oddity, and I don't know if more initial plushness would change it or if a fork brace would be the cure. I've been on a few warmer tire rides now in some of my typically rough and twisty roads and this was the only time I got that sensation.

More when I can duplicate that.
