when you say wobble was it the rear end shake/wobble or was it the handle bar tank slapper? does your bike have the new style frame or the old style? Ive experianced  both and know the feeling
He does not specify but the photo is of a 2007 FLHTCUSE2 and I think that is the bike he is referring to.  So old style frame. :2vrolijk_21:

The ride str8 or the tru track made these bikes handle better. The fork bearings are prob dry. Find that zerk and if it hasnt been lubed it will take a whole tube. Mine never woobled again after the rear stabilizer was added and the front lubed up. I had problems with rear swingarm wear but that was at 60k miles. It would be easy to put an indicator on wheels to ck run out

It is the rear end doing the wiggle bars are steady.

I have been In touch with the tyre manufactures and it has come back that the tyre put on the bike is designed for lighter weight bikes.
The manufacture has given me the information as to the correct tyre to carry the load.
Now I've got to take it up with the bike shop. They messed up they got to make it right I'm hopping with out a struggle.

I've not found any other thing as far but this tyre issue and too keep in mind all this trouble began after the tyre was installed.

So now let the games begin

I was told at the Dealership the Batwing fairing was only designed to keep the wind off of you up to 70 mph. I have a standard windshield that doesn't so far cause this problem even at speeds in excess of 100mph.
