What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my Husqvarna WR 250?
A tank slapper is a fast side to side shake of the handlebars. Our guides explain what causes it and how to decide whether you need a stabilizer: tank slappers, speed wobble and head shake and do you need a steering stabilizer.
