MY CONCERN IS WITH THE HANDLING CAPABILITIES OF MY 2006 KAWASAKI CONCOURS MOTORCYCLE. THE MOTORCYCLE IS TOP HEAVY AND IS EXTREMELY UNSTABLE WHEN RIDING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IN TRAFFIC. THE WIND TURBULENCE FROM THE OTHER VEHICLES MAKES THE BIKE VERY WOBBLY AND DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN COMPLETE CONTROL. PART OF THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE WINDSHIELD DESIGN OF THE BIKE IN MY OPINION. WHEN I TALKED WITH MY DEALER ABOUT THE MATTER HE STATED THAT MOST PEOPLE WHO BUY THIS BIKE CHANGE THE WINDSHIELD TO HELP MAKE THE BIKE MORE STABLE. *JB
