Aha, you have the same prob as myself. I lowered mine by 80mm with springs and shocks and it now does exactly the same as yours. Was told it was the top mounts so went to GSF car parts to get some new bushes and bearings, had them fitted and it still does it. Not yet had the prob answered. May need to buy some spring compressors and have a gander myself. Someone suggested to me I may have the wrong top mounts so am checking with GSF on monday they gave me the right ones. Hope you get an answer for yours. I beleive GSF do however do a modified strut top mounting, more expensive than the original, I am going to ask on monday about this so will let you know.
