Hi there,
Fitted new Pirelli MT60 on the 2007 GS650.
But now I've sit with a scary problem...anything over 130km/h and the front wheel start to swerve allot  :-\
What could be the problem here? Issue with the tyre or maybe something else?
This did not happen with the original tyres, can't remember now what it was...think it was a Bridgestone something...
To put into context - I bought the bike in December last year, with ONLY 500km on the clock. So the OEM tyres was still "new", but 12 yrs old, hence me replacing it today.
Bike now has 1159km on clock
