Hi all, I recently bought a 2007 XT660R. My previous bike was a GS1200 ADV. I live in South Africa so we have great places to go for outrides and have fun. So far I enjoy the bike but my only problem is that the steering starts swerving/whobbling when I go on the highway and go above 110kmp/h. Sometimes it doesn't happen but it is a bit scary. A few people told me that it is the mudguard or extended windshield catching the wind. It seems a bit crazy that they would bring a bike out like that. Any suggestions please. Thanks. Luke

:hello: and :welcome: to :660:

your steering issue is quite common. please reduce your tyre pressure to between 28 and 30 psi max, ride and report back.

Welcome mate, also check your steering head bearings.

I've replied in your other post regarding your wobbles.
