I have been out today for the first really good run on my Comet. I loved it! all except that is...
The handling is atrocious. The bike seems to not be capable of holding a steady line, and weaves all over the place. It appears to track anywhere it likes! almost like the steering damper is overtightened, but its not.
Tyres/wheels seem to spin up straight, but the steering head bearings seem tight, plus there is a small amount of play in the upper link eccentric bushes. I just looked up the price of head bearings and almost fell off my chair!!
Any thoughts?
Steve.
