Headshake. Bad...

I get a wobble around 90 MPH that gives a little pucker.

What kind of damper are you guys using on the X?

It is a dirt bike, so I wouldn't try and solve the 90mph wobble. I also found shifting the weight didn't help much either, but just tried to let off and let it do its thing.

So as not to jack the man's thread, I will point you to this thread for steering damper info, https://wr250rforum.forumotion.com/oh-those-sweet-mods-f5/scotts-steering-stabilizer-t2561.htm

I wouldn't buy it to solve a wobble at 90mph though, but if you want one, there is the current thread going on.

Check out rydnseek's thread. His tires are as fat or fatter than the 705's. Look at the pics of where his forks are.

My research says that all bikes will wobble after a certain speed. Even a "properly setup" bike will wobble, but the speed might be 300mph, a speed it will never reach. So, if you've got wobble at 90mph, it might be the same problem I have, but just at a higher speed.

I've used both a Scotts steering damper and put 90W oil in my stock damper on my 2008 GSX1300R Hayabusa. It's done 200 MPH with no wobble.

There is a solution. But I entirely agree about the compromise thing. I haven't touched my height or suspension yet. I want to learn the stock bike before I go Jimmying it up. (Apologies to anyone out there named Jimmy) I already went 12/48 gears cause I want to get to max MPH ffffffffffffaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassst.

Yeah, I'm going to try raising them. What the heck, why not. Just didn't have time yet.

This is how far I went. A shade less than .5 in.
