I am new to sportbiking.. did alot of road course car racing over the years and this is completely different. I have a 1984 Kawasaki GPZ750.. I am just starting to learn how to lean it over and really get into the corners with it.. unfortunately I have found a problem early on.. just as I start to lean into it after the initial turn in (after its already leaned over) the rear end shimmys.. its almost like the rear tire breaks loose for a moment and then catches.... after my heart starts pumping again the bike seems to continue to corner just fine.. but its a less then fun feeling.. its got 10k on the odometer but who knows if its been replaced even thought the title agrees...
I know most of you are not going to know much about this bike but I am willing to listen to theories.. (also, even though its an 84' it is a Uni rear suspension, single shock and spring)..
Also, the only radial tires I can find for these 18" wheels are Avon Super Venoms... any comments?
