Front end twitch under braking

Hi,I have a problem with my Honda cbr600fy that i hope someone on here can solve.  As soon as i touch the front brakes whilst riding i get a slight twich of the front end to the right, its not enough to completely unsettle the bike and the brakes pull the bike up fine.There is no pulsing or spongy feeling at the brake lever either.The brakes have had new pads put in and a complete brake fluid change, the front forks seem ok too.Anyone got any ideas?

Convicted and fined whilst on RTW ride

Can anybody help?!?!?I am in the middle of riding a classic bike to Australia, a trip I  sold everything I own to make happen.  I  recently got an email from my dad saying that the DVLA were demanding my license back and a 500 quid fine, which came as quite a shock.  I couldn't find out ANYTHING about what I had done.  I ordered a replacement license which was sent to my fathers house with  6 points on it, apparently in March 2013 I was convicted by Oxfordshire Crown Court of 'Failure to Identify the Driver' (MS09).  I  have ...

VT Shadow - Compression

I%X92m refitting the cylinder head on a VT Shadow 700c V twin OHC. The 700c was modified for the USA market and imported to the UK. I%X92ve replaced cylinder and head gaskets with ones made for the 750c as these were the only ones available and they look identical. I am unable to get any compression in either cylinder. At TDC there is clearance at the inlet and exhaust valves but as I torque the camshaft housing the gap closes and all valve springs appear to be compressed.

GSF 650 bearing problem?

I've got a 2008 bandit and for the last few hundred miles I seem to have hit a strange noise coming from the chain area. The chain is oiled up and in good condition. I initially thought it was the chain catching the plastic guide but it is tensioned correct.  The noise sounds like a bearing failure. When I took the cover of the front sprocket I can see all teeth are present, but when I turn the rear wheel, I can feel a notchyness in the chain as it goes round the front sprocket.  Should it be smooth as ...
