Hi, All!
So I recently had Shinko 241's installed on my 2023 Trail 125. I took the stock wheels off and took them to a local motorcycle shop to have them installed. I reinstalled the wheels and new tires. I now have a what I can only describe as a bounce in the front end. At first I thought it was a wobble, but it actually feels like a bounce. It's not unrideable but it is very noticeable. To the point that it makes the ride a bit uncomfortable. Can anyone give me an idea as to where to start to figure it out? I admittedly do not know a ton about motorcycles. I didnt expect the feel of the Shinkos to be as smooth as stock, however, if this is the ride that i have to live with now, I may sacrifice the off road grip of the Shinkos for the smoothness of the stock tires. Please help!
