Hi Maniatics,
I have put on 45ltr tank to my RD07. I also have added the touratech
pannier set. Now, of course, the handling is very different. The front
forks are now very spongy indeed. I almost kiss the ground every time I
brake. What, in your opinion, would be the best solution? A heavier oil,
maybe - or change them altogether? And what would be the ideal tyre
pressure (T66, which I have at the moment and for the Enduro 4 which I am
soon to put on)? Bear in mind that I am carrying 45 litres of fuel, two
full panniers, spare tyres, and one other bag of clothes, spares and stuff.
I am happy to hear that all those who went to the 7th meeting had such a
good time. I am sorry I couldn't be there, but my sponsors wanted me at the
BMF in Peterborough, which was great too. Next time though.
Keep well
Keep it 2
