Normal body movement?

Hi guys,

have noticed if going down hill in a traffic jam whenever i apply the brakes the left front of the G moves up, as soon as I release the brakes it goes back down, while the right side stays put. This isn't normal right?
Shocks?
Thks

Sounds as if the brakes may be biased more towards the rear. I would definately start by inspecting the brake system.

Mike, I had the same issues, but after I overhauled the front caliper (some pistons were stuck!) everything is back to normal.
Have a look at your brake system.
