Hey guys,
I just got a 600rr yesterday! Traded in my 900rr for it. So far it is great! Sounds way better, pulls less hard though. Handling I haven''''t really pushed it that much yet untill I get the feeling for the bike. A question though, it is a 03 600rr and has a steering damnper. One thing I noticed is that going up too 200 kph, (sorry I am canadian, don''''t know how much that is in mph) I noticed the front shakes alot more than my old bike. Is this normal? I am bringing back to the dealer to have them check the alignment just to be sure. Also there is something rattling in the front and I can''''t figure out what it is, it is driving me crazy...
Thanks in advance.

the thing rattlin is probly just ur brakes sumtimes they make a lil noise, not sumthing to wrry about... there are soo many variables to type out for the shake. if the dealer doesnt figure it out ask again.

I have a 06 RR and have a scotts damper on my bike, I do not have any shaking at all. Does it need a new front tire or maybe balanced

Have them take off the front tire and balance it. Or just look to see if there is any dents in the rim.

great! it is there now and they are doing all that. i will tell them about balancing the front tire cause i did see some weights on it. maybe that is why! also, i got a freaking nail in my tire, on my 1st ride with it. :( they cant repair it, so a new back tire, the front is battlax, should i go with the same for the back again, or pilots. i dont think it is good to have 2 tires not matching though..

You were right! The front was off by 4 grams. Not sure if that is alot or not, but sounds like that would make it shake at 200km!!
Thanks for the time.
