worrying woblies!

Still on the "attempting to get BP" on my road bike atm as my stuntbike to be still needs a new rad...anyway to the point...When I get to a certain point of wheelying it wobbles from side to side alot, it tries to turn me into what I would imagine was the beggining of a circle...Is this BP? is it just because I've got too much air in my tyres and I ain't used to it being that high or is this too far?

Just a little help would be appreciated

Re: worrying woblies!

how much pressure are you running? and its just throttle control from what i've learned. When i get the w0bbles i just either tap rear brake or bring it back past BP. Good luck

Re: worrying woblies!

I think its standard which is around 41psi...I am just guessing that its just because I've got all the weight on one point of the back trye and I've got the "front to back" controlled then its only got side to side to go...is that correct?

Re: worrying woblies!

what speeds are you talking about??? like idle or 60mph, because that bike ain't doing a circle at 60
