Default PIO in a Shell Valley?
Yesterday I was cruising at about 45-50, and got an unexpected side to side swerving on my shell valley, much like PIO (pilot induced oscillation) in an airplane. It only lasted 4 or 5 cycles, and I did nothing to correct it, and I think I did nothing to cause it. Checked out the suspension, and found nothing loose. Found it to be very disconcerting...... If it had been at higher speed or a narrower road, I could have had a real problem.
Any suggestions?
