Hi all,
I'm new to the site and I found this site a few weeks ago, but haven't been able to get back to it. I have a serious safety issue that a search didn't come up with anything on. I'm a new Connie owner. I have had it about a month. It's an 11 C14. I have had the front tire wash out on me 3 times already. The first time I thought it was just because of new tires. That was around 200 miles in. It happened again at around 500 and yet again at about 850 miles. Has anyone else had this problem? It is really starting to affect my confidence in cornering which I believe will bring other issues about. All 3 of these incidents were simple easy turns. Each time I inspected the tire to make sure there was no oil on it and I went back to where it occured and made sure the road didn't have anything on it. I really LOVE this bike, but this has me a bit shaken.
