Default How can you tell if...............

your front end/forks or wheel is damaged after hitting a pothole? seems to ride straight and I don't see any damage or anything bent. it wasn't a big pothole but it jarred the bike. 2011 Wide Glide

thanks in advance.

I notice that when I was slowing down for a red light at low speed my front Wheel was wobbling a bit but at speed was not noticeable. Went to dealer and it was bent changed to mag never looked back !

I would raise it on a lift, and standing facing your bike, spin the front wheel and watch it closely. You should be able to tell at that point if it was damaged.
