DT125X front fork speed wobble

Calum

@lorant2 I mean, by bike is a bastardisation of several bikes all put together in a shed, and mine doesn't wobble.

I'd raise the front end back up. Lowering the forks through the yokes, will make it more nimble but will make it less stable in a straight line.

I am 160 CM and 55 KG if it means anything. I found the front forks too soft at first but now with the spacer I feel it is enough.

Cure = Eat more pies!!!

Nice DTX tho!!!

@lorant2 try a ride without the front mudhuard fitted and see if the wobble stops

@declan yes I was thinking it could be caused by wind / drag etc

Thank you guys for the replies
About that pie part, well im like eating too much but it just wont grab on me or idk

I will try basic setting in the front and removing mudguard.

Also one other thing, above 100 kmh if i just grab the clutch or push the handlebar the wobble starts. So I can like simulate the bad road or crosswind with this.

Is the rear end raised?

@spookdog
No, I just decreased the spring preload a little to get 1/3 of the travel as sag. Didn't have to do much adjustment tho. No aftermarket dog bones or any other sht installed. So it is actually lower than stock. (it was 620mm between the two measurement points and now it is 600 if I recall correctly.)

@lorant2
Was that after the wobble started?
