Well RIP to the poor chap, however speaking for myself I have never experienced any weaving on my MTS including on tour with luggage, up to maximum speed.
And that was the staggering thing about it 1,461 people would have to drop dead for him to be our King. Imagine that: our King riding a Ducati!
It’s in the Mail, so it must be true! https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...les-fears-motorbike-loving-William-Harry.html
Well, I learn something every day! I didn't know he was into bikes. The Royal Family have just gone up a bit in my estimation! I haven't got a good record here. I was staying in a hotel in the New Forest and went down to breakfast where someone was reading a rag about Princess Diane being killed in a car crash. "What a load of rubbish!", I exclaimed. That was my last breakfast at that hotel! I never realised that my foot could get stuck in my mouth, so easily!
No offence, but don’t agree on someone definitely determining that the bike was at fault. Too many variables and it would have to be something glaringly obvious and even then there could be a bit of supposition thrown in. Only my opinion of course.
Given the state of most media, all that seems to be factual is a bloke on a ducati has died on a road in bavaria
I always found that a top box was one culprit likely to cause a weave; but the main one I always check for is incorrect headstock bearing adjustment.
My concern was that the initial report I read, implied the bike had to be at fault without any evidence, just that the deceased was a competent rider and surely wouldn’t have made a misjudgement. Andy
The Kevin Ash crash comes to mind.. https://www.autoevolution.com/news/kevin-ash-s-death-still-needs-some-explanations-78590.html
Something about the stages of grief includes anger and disbelief...oh yeah and looking for someone/ thing else to blame...
Tragic accident and May he rest in Peace. Daily Mail are shytes end of.... Nothing to do with the manufacturer but thats the way this crappy newspaper rolls.. tossers. Years ago I was shown an information film on wobble and weave presented by our Murray Walker which I've found on Youtube. Now I know that tyre technology and suspension has progressed immeasurably since that film was made but the physics are still the same to this day. It can still effect any bike for any given number of reasons.
