:o Is this something True-Track was designed for :nixweiss:
True-Track and Ride-Str8 devices were designed to reduce rear steer, which is a result of the combination of rubber mounting of the powertrain and swing arm pivot along with flexing of the swing arm itself.  If the "wobble" you feel is in fact rear steer, then yes, those devices will help.

A true speed wobble, resulting in rapid side-to-side oscillation of the bars (tank slapper), is normally more front end related.  A True-Track or Ride-Str8 would have little or no affect on a front end induced wobble.  The E-Glide front end, with extremely steep rake angle and excessive trail, is not the most stable setup for high speeds.  It was designed the way it is (27 years ago) to improve low speed handling, back when 100 mph was but a dream on a stock bike.
