  2. Just took the bike out (for ITV (MOT) but didn't get it because they
    were too busy) for the first time in about 10 years - well it feels like
    that long. It vibrates like buggery at 100mph. What's causing that then?
    It was alright last time I rode it.

    Somebody fix it.

    Or, if it's been sitting on its tyres on the sidestand, they could have
    squared off slightly. But you have to leave a bike for a helluva long
    time for that.

    TOG@toil, ,
    I would guess that all the air has settled to the bottom of the tyre.
    He just needs to let it all out and refill it.

  8. In uk.rec.motorcycles, flash belched forth and ejected the following:
    Nah, you just need to ride it to get the heavy air to disperse amongst
    and around the rest of the tyre.
