Rear end wiggle

[20220727]

I have noticed that the rear of the bike wiggles under me when on the rear brake & coming down the rears quickly

The first time was a bit of surprise but I almost expect it now

I must say that I have not noticed it - yet!

Sounds like a suspension set-up issue. Too much weight going over the front under braking.

Sounds like you need to cut down on the pork pies, BabyD

But I could also be popping the clutch to quick, as I approach a junction/roundabout foot on the brake gear down from say fifth gear to second proberbly doing 40-50mph pop the clutch & wiggle wiggle

As for too many pork pies

Going to ask the obvious now but what rider mode and what setting for traction control and ABS have you got dialed in ?

BabyD - I didn't know you were into twerking 

Crikey I'd keep quiet about that if I were you and definitely don't mention it on a forum.......whoops...too late

Its definitely a weight distribution issue.
Place yourself correctly,
try pushing your ass towards the rear wheel,
also releasing the tension in the back suspension will help too.

I think , a lot of guys are leaning  forwards too much at high speeds.
