V11 suspension rail issues

Looking for some input from anyone with a v11. I’ve noticed some slight shifting between the rails mounted on the wheel and the connecting rails on the frame. When leaning forward or backwards they shift from front to back slightly. Is that common? I haven’t noticed it before. Is there a way to mitigate the slop? It’s not a huge amount a few millimeters or so.

My V11 has the same "issue".

I've seen that Speedy Feet UK reported a similar thing during his review of the V11. He made a point that this was present at 0 km and it didn't get worse after 1000 km of stress testing the wheel. He also asked Inmotion directly (according to the YT video) and they confirmed it is not a problem. I guess time will tell. 

Anyone else?

There needs to be a tiny amount of “play” in the rails for the suspension to be sensitive. But it does increase in use and can be bothersome.

 Cutting 8mm wide strips from a soda can and inserting them between the vertical aluminum poles and the small plastic suspension sliding guides (8 in total) is the best solution to too much movement that I know of. You do need to remove the whole moving saddle-handle assembly for the install.
