Title: Wobble
Post by: Backroads3 on August 05, 2022, 08:52:22 AM

Not sure if this post should be here or in suspension but...

I've had a speed wobble for some time, 2010 FLHXSE but it's been difficult to pin down. High miles on the bike 190k. We have changed the motor mounts, engine mount stabilizer, front wheel bearings, rear shocks and front suspension was also replaced. The bike is stable with 2 up but alone it is still there. Thinking that with high miles should we change out the swing out bushings?

Tire pressure,  warped rotor and neck bearing adjustment are a few thoughts you could look into.

Several sets of tires through this as it's been an issue for awhile and I forgot to list the neck bearings which have been checked. Will replace the rotors as they are aged.

Appreciate ideas.

How about the swingarm bearings and bushings?  That fixed it on my '05 SEEG.

Ok, swingarm bushings was a consideration with the age and miles so I'll replace them.
