not quit sure what you mean about light and skittish ? when the wheel is off the ground is their any play when you wiggle it from side to side ? is the wheel alignment ok.

No movement on the wheel and alignment is perfect

When you turn in to a corner just feels like the rear wants to overtake the front

Yep. Everything was great until the bearing went

Got my guess on the new bearings aren't great so going to put some genuine Suzuki ones in with a new axle as well on Saturday

Will let you know how that pans out.

thanks for the help guys and girls
