Unstable under braking...any suspension tips?

    Unstable under braking...any suspension tips?

    I already checked to see if the rotor's were warped. When I brake hard, it seems like the tail end wobbles/drifts....anyone know the right suspension adjustments to make?

    Thanks

    Might be normal if you are lifting (or almost lifting) the rear tire off the ground a little by hard braking. I can tell when I'm braking near the limit when mine does that. You see it a lot in racing.

    get fat, slide back in the seat a little, or drag rear brake a touch.
