I also was experiencing the front end speed wobble. If felt downing dangerous and the bike was only 1 year old with 6000kms only. The preload both ends was all the way out from factory. I dialled in approx 50% preload both ends and fitted a RSC Hyperpro adj steering damper (stock one very light damping). I altered the preload over the course of several rides to get it to where I was happy. To follow the BMW Manual to set preload I found pretty useless actually. Now the from end is rock solid stable at speed. Adding preload and the steering damper at the same time so I can't be sure if it was both changes the the adjustability of the steering damper is great. It can be adjusted sitting on the bike by reaching around front of the bike. Light setting for around town and a few clicks more for spirited riding.

Hi Jack. Thanks for the video. So I have the same bike, 2016 S1000R Sport (used bike). I'm small 66kg bloke, 5"8, and I'm always dubious about fiddling with suspension, and have not yet, but I'm 100% sure mine isn't setup for my weight and height. Should I try adjust myself or would you recommend taking to a bike-mech to set it up for me?

You may struggle to get preload low wnough at your weight. Just wind it all out. Front and rear
