Cool. A Radian was my first "real" bike. I bought it because it was the cheapest 4 cyl 600 cc on the market, but to my surprise, I found it to be a very good riding, extremely well balanced bike.



Me and that bike did the Stelvio Pass (http://www.climbbybike.com/climb.asp?qryMountainID=39) and much of Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the Italian/French Riviera.



I did find out that my front wheel was out of balance at 120 mph....dang thing started wobbling like crazy - I thought I was going to have to be hosed off the autobahn. :supercool:

Normaly that is not a balance problem. It is the tree and frame alighnment. Tire balance might have contributed some at that speed.
