I just got off the line with one of the guys that helps with the Buell Demo rides here in Canada. I got some insightful info from him. Some of you might have noticed that the front end of your bikes mildly flutter sometimes during deceleration if your hands are off the grips. Mine has been doing this. So the guy I spoke to told me that every demo bikes does this as well, and that its a normal reaction to having such a short wheelbase. Its not a problem in the head bearing, or in the tire balancing, or the rims...

Thought you guys might find the info helpful...
