What is 'normal' handling..
#3

Mmh, i'll jack the rear up and have a look. The other thing is, when changing direction i.e. entering/coming off roundabouts, the back end feels 'loose' which supports the knackered bush idea.

Am i right in thinking the dampers mainly help initial turn in on cornering? So if the rear dampers are gone, it would lead to a skittish/wondering rear end? I have also noticed that if entering a speed bump at >15mph, the front bounces up with little dampening effect. Is that due to stiffness of springs or again, knackered shocks?
