[QUOTE="cantrell24x, post: 1372916, member: 25388"] Thanks for the replys guys. Fox, I imagine the rake is stock but the forks and shock were both lowered internally, I did not use what is commonly refered to as a lowering link. Is that what you meant? THe problem just about has to be something I did either riding or reinstalling the suspension. Because when I first got the stuff on the bike it was very very good. And it was working right for over six months. I did learn that originally my shock was charged to 150psi. When it was serviced it was only charged to 130psi. Is that 20psi change enough to cause medium to severe headshake? I have had four instances of headshake in three rides since putting the suspension back on the bike. All are under acceleration, one was in some chatter type bumps and very uickly became tank slapping headshake. The other three where on smooth ground and not nearly as bad but still noticable by spectators, and enough to put a big dent in my confidence. Other than the nitrogen psi I havent found anything that is different about the set up. I do have a Ti front axle, it does not appear to be bent though. I am headed out to the shop now to completely tear down the bike. Thanks for all the help and I will let you guys know if I find anything. [/QUOTE]
