I have no clue about only 93 mph I have ran up to 148 (top speed on the Garmin gps) many of times I have no issues at all have done it with a fairing and windshield and bare I would say those that have this issue something is wrong but to many things to list
 
Get a slight weave sometimes if I'm loaded up with luggage and pillion. I assume the weight over the rear makes the front a little lighter. Only at over a ton thought, no issues below.

I used to get a front end shake from the front at low speeds whilst on Metz but no issues since I switched to the Avon Cobras :)
 
I've been told they are tuned to go to 180 klm ph no more , , I've hit that with the screen on and off and found its still pulling but i chikened out not the bike , , no problems at all the bike was solid , , I hit the speed and was still pulling away before i had the engine retuned , and after , , what i actually got too before i slowed i don't know after 180 i was too scared to look .

But i have had the wobble in the bike when hands took off the bars a few times now , and each time the tyres have been cupped and new tyres have fixed it .

For the nice policemen reading , it was legal when i hit them speeds , , I went to germany to play on the Autoban ,
 
This is why I went a tad over 55mph :cool:

Had more he up around 130 recently and was adjusting body positions to test. If I leaned back in a full on reclined position it would weave slightly, as soon as I leaned forward more, close to the tank it would stop. Once I figured that out I buried the needle and it was fine all the way up.

Edit: my bike is full naked, no screen.

No need to go to Germany just pop up to the Northern Territory (though I would guess the autobahns are smoother and of better quality).http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-02-01/speed-limits-shelved-for-nt-highway-sports-cars/5232388

No Kangeroos on the Autobhan ,,,,,,And Paronoia ,, I thought i was , but my wife told me i'm not paranoid everyone really does hate me . Ha ha
 
I had that odd weave at an estimated 130, I blamed the windshield at the time, but I did have worn Metz on the bike, so I dunno....
 
OK - Got rid of the Metz - on with the Avon Cobra's - it's like a new bike. No weaving, a lot lighter in a straight line and stick's like glue in the corners. Very happy camper right now.
