Alan I have the FS but the triple I got are 16mm with adjustable angle (more closer at the moment)...yes suspension is where I would be looking to fix the problem, its's probably just the front getting lighter at high speed and causing the issue. what's your max speed on your bike? or what you can reach comfortably.

Mine are FE’s. Even down the straight almost wound out they are stable. I don’t know what speed I was doing as I was more concerned about watching where I was going.

I’d start with some basics like set your sag. Run your settings on the forks maxed out. Tyre pressure? Forks position in the triples trying 2.5mm at a time.

Congratulations to good project results!
I had an FS650 back in the day, which I tuned and raced in the Supermono class with. The only time it wobbled on me was at some 170 km/h, through a "chikane", leaning flat down with one arm on my back! Was solved with both hands on the bars! Is everything tightened and without play? Wheel axles, fork clamping the front axle, steering bearings, swing arm pivot axle etc?

thanks both Alan and DR-C ...ahahah good point , I don't actually know my tyre pressure

it was made up random at the time, I am running a wet tyre on front but I don't think that can be the full issue ( it's the only one I can run with 16.5 and be ''road legal'')

DR-C ...everything seems tight, I don't think it can be any of the fork or triple clamp adapter, (all bearings are new) ...I actually got annoyed by it on my weekend ride, fat guy on Harley manage to pass me on the straight, he was looking back thinking I was getting him but I was wobbling at 80 (thinking inside my helmet ''shit...shit...shit..F*** bastard'') , soon after tight corner comes into play and the story change

I double check a bit of everything this weekend (pressure,shock, fork) and see what happen.

150 kph will be my weekend goal

...I will also try again the lectron and see what happen

and there was another guy when I was refuelling that was looking at my bike outrageously and said ''are you running front wet?'' (sunny day on 22° )...me''yeah that's the only tyre I can get for the road'' and he just left, didn't say anything more
