Stock 929...

On a stock 929 no dampers or nothing, now when I was riding this thing on the freeway at a high speed then let go with my hands it immediatly gets a tank slapper?? What the hell would make it do this. Bent rim, swingarm, loose headset,...??? My 929 has 2 dampers so I can't figure it out sinse its stiff as a pipe and wont wobble, is this something 929's just do?

Do you have a damper and does it tank slap still, cuz I might buy this for another 929 to stunt with and I don't want tank slappers while doing spinderella's and christ airs and whatnot.

If your front tire is cupped it will make your bike want to tank slapp.Check your front tire if it is cupped try a new tire , and see what happens .
