Did you bounce on the front suspension before tightening the pinch bolts?No I did not I just tightned them up. Bike has 7500 miles on it. I bought i brand new in Feb of this year. No top trunk.
Steering neck bearings?
Top trunk on?
I just went through this, and its easily solvable. Think about what the 55 series rear tire did. Not only did it raise the rear end slightly, it also placed more weight on the forks. No big deal, really, btu this bike is heavy. When you start moving weight around, we're talking WEIGHT!Its funny at WOT. It feels like the front end is to light. Should I try putting a few click to H on the rear? I took out 6 from stock because the ride was to hard. I had no problems with this issue until I replaced the tires. Thanks for your help!!
Try removing preload from the shock..try 5 clicks. Then take out 1/4 turn of rebound damping. Then test. If it helped, but did not entirely fix it, add a line.
Do the rear first as its entirely possible to tune the advantages of that taller tire right out of the system. More preload up front will not let the front end settle as much dropping into a corner.
Obvioulsy, this assumes bearings, and tire installation are correct. Plus, my trunk adds in all sorts of odd behaviors at "legal impaired" speeds.
Have you had the bike up to triple digits before? Any issues then? If no, then new tires or installation of.yeah. No problems befre the tire change I know I blanced them well. humm maybe I need to reset the front Ill pay more attention to see if it is still pulling right. If so I'll try resetting it then see how it acts. If not I guess I take her in.Just dont want to part with her for 3 weeks. To have the tire checked until I get over 100 there is no problem at all.
I just chased down an a$$hat yesterday, running Angels well worn, and hit 105 indicated by Zumovision... topbox, left pannier full, right empty, no issues.

I've ran many 190/55 tires hard (only reason i buy them) and haven't had any issues nor tweaked my suspension keeping the 5mm in mind
If there was no weight placed on the front end (read: bounced) before the axle pinch bolts were tightened then you possibly have an axle that is misaligned. I would start there and then look for the easy fixes like adjusting your suspension, but the 190/55 should not cause enough change in the bike to call for a suspension adjustment.
