I remember my first one one a glorious summer evening leaving Winchester and going wot on the slip road. Steering went lock to lock for fuck knows how long. Luckily no traffic and managed to slow it down, but even at 50 I could feel the bars twitching. Got off at next exit and pootled home.
Partly glad that bike got stolen.
In other news, the CBR is up for sale and gathering a fair bit of interest! I want summat dirt now. You've infected everyone here.

I'd say that sometimes it helps to accelerate through a major speed wobble but a hardcore tankslapper has thrown my hands off the bars every time. Had one break the lockstops on my TL1000s - extremely hazy memory but I recall hearing the tyres chirp as the bike had flicked itself up in the air. I landed back on the bike and fortunately kept going but was a total passenger for the event.
