    Default RS Front Shocks

    My wife and I went for a long ride the other day with another couple on a harley and he stated that my bike was leaning to the right the entire time when I was going straight. He also stated he could see that both of us were straight up and even. My wife has said when I turn to the right the back end feels like it is sliding. I have noticed that my bike is harder to turn when I am turning to the right when riding one up. I was wondering if anyone had any issues with their spyder doing this. Is this a shock problem? Tire issue? Ideas?

    First thing to do is check the tire pressures and check to see that both front springs have the preload set to the same notch, and that the spring adjusters are not broken. Also realize that on a crowned road, the machine will, indeed, lean to the right, but most riders try to remain vertical.
