I have an 01 xc 300 wp's usd's and ohlins rears. the only thing I have done to it is put a lowering link on it. I am having a wierd situation I noticed last weekend riding it.
when I hit some lips and other obstacles, the bike seems to always want to deflect to the right for some reason. I did not notice it as much without the link in, and I understand how that changes the fork angle, but I don't see how that would cause this ?
I did notice the bars were not exactly centered. they are a set of 7/8 pro tapers, but they have no line up marks on them at all. Also the support bar was not centered either. Both of those could not have been off more that 1/4 inch. but more of the bar was on the lh side..
i have never noticed this before, but have never rode it as hard and in the hardest conditions I have ever put the bike in, last weekend.. Other than that, the bike was a dream, but i went down twice in that same situation...
any thoughts ??
