Got the bike back together today with the new Elite IIIs. Just got back from a 40 mile break in run and am really surprised how much difference there is. The wobblies are completely gone! I tried to make it wobble by bumping the handlebar at speeds from 20 to 50 and it wouldn't do it. I was planning on tearing her down next week to get at the head bearings but don't need to now. I knew the old tires were worn but didn't expect so much improvement, grooves on the road that the old tires tried to follow are totally ignored now. She sits perfectly still in the wide sweepers on the slab, no more hunting at all. Quiet too!
