    Urg... no. I'm paranoid when driving fast about getting them so I'm constantly leaning forward to keep as much pressure on the front wheel as possible

    Even then, they are still possible. I had one at just over 160km whilst relaxed and leaning forwards on my Bros650 in '05 Splat.

    When you say tankslapper, are you meaning headshake? or actual tankslapper (broken wrists, steering stops, dented tank etc).

    Actual tank slapper. Hence the "splat" I put after the sentence. My wrists didn't get broken though, luckily as they left some choice dents in the tank
