I'm getting a similar feeling at the rear at high speed since changing from MZ's to eagle f1's..... I have re050's at the front still so could this feeling of a livelier rear be due to the rear tyre side walls being softer than I'm used to...?

Don't change gear in a corner?

Long sweeping bends with the throttle open sometimes demand up shifts, I didn't mean gear changes in your everyday corner, but coming on/off the throttle also seems to upset it a bit, need to get out and try some varied driving.

Well, they work better than your 'cork' idea Chris!

I don't think anyone mentioned it.
Check your tyre pressure!

Do I glue them on the tyres or add to the fuel tank?
