I ride with a friend who's poor taste lead them to purchasing an '02 Triumph America. On twisties and sliders she complained the bike is not responsive. So we traded bikes a few miles and I have never seen this issue in all my years of riding. In a curve in either direction, you can feel the forks push against you when reverse steering, it is very resistant and want's to upright. Leaning into a curve produces the same effect. It's like a top, always wants to upright and is very stern about it too. Forks are loose enough, no binds, tires about new. I suggested she may try changing the fork oil as they seemed a bit stiff but I doubt that will actually fix it. Forks have not been changed nor rake changed. Acts like the geometry is just off, but find it hard to believe it's just poor numbers. Any idea's ?:wall
