Front end dive
New owner 2004 R1150R. Front end dives noticeably when lifting off throttle and braking. Is this normal? If not, how do I fix it?
Re: Front end dive
That behavior is not normal and as indicated before I'd get the front shock inspected.

Re: Front end dive
It might seem a bit obvious but make sure your rear brake is working well. If the front is all that is working it can cause the bike to dive.
