Riding the 920

My Mk 111 had one hand off the left bar tiny - wobble issue as well.
Then noticed the tire pressures were consistently falling slowly a bit over time.
Unscrewed valve caps , sprayed a tad of silicone lubricant into both valves and observed some tiny bubbles forming.. ( Michelin tubes ) .
Took valves out and they were dry . More spray to them and re-inserting and proper pressures and off for a test ride .
No more slight wobble with a hand off .
Just something to consider and was easy to fix.
Lovely bike BTW !
 
It's always wise to check tyre pressure regularly, I don't truss service station gauges as most get dropped and not accurate I use the same gauge at home but it's about 3lbs higher from testing with another hand held gauge I carry in my tool kit so I compensate for the extra air my compressor gauge in accuracy, my hand held gauge is pretty accurate, I normally do my pressures every 3 weeks whether they need air or not and if I am going on a big ride with my mates I always check before leaving home as we like to play when together.

I'm interested in your GoPro set up as I was looking to get one myself.

Initially I was looking at new old stock GoPro 10 Black and new out GoPro 11 Black. There seemed to be some issues with the GoPro 10 and the 11 hadn't been in use long enough to declare it a good one. Cost was about $600 CDn for the 10 and $800 or so for the 11. Add in some accessories and kiss $1,000 away.
So I went el cheapo instead, purchased an old Gopro4 Black for $30 with all kinds of accessories. It doesn't have all of the features of the new units but seems to work just fine.
The new ones have electronics that make the effect from bumps in the road disappear. I kind of like it with bumps in, it's real.
Still learning how to use this thing. As Tornado suggested, I need to use the remote mic to reduce the wind noise.
Its not horrible tho and the perky engine sound does come thru.
