Wobbles in Sitdown

I can do standups all day long with no wobbles, but sitdowns I seem to have problems with it. I am sitting close to the tank, which I think is supposed to be better so the only thing I can think of is being choppy on the throttle. What do you guys think? Today I got wobbles so bad, I thought I was gonna go down.

You definitely do want to sit as close to the tank as possible. Try doing them a little slower and be as smooth on the throttle as possible. Leaning back also provides more straight ahead stabilty, that is why when doing sd circles you want to lean forward to allow the bike to to rotate better. Good tire helps to.

U will get to a spot between 1030 and 11 that is a wobble spot it does it to me all the time but just a bit higher and as long as u are smooth it will get better, plus the tire, the road grade and u always are making small subtle adjustments anyway!!!
