Frt wheel wobble and uneven wear ?
2012 Deluxe,12,00 mi. I have been noticeing a slight wobble from the front wheel on right turns lately.I just noticed my tire shows more wear on the right side.
Any ideas on what might be the problem? My bike is still under warranty but I dont want to take it to the dealer. I wonder if they would work on just the wheel? They have to take it off to do any thing to it.If it needs bearings,I see from the repair manual I'd need a special puller to replace them.
I also notice when spinning the wheel that I hear it rubbing the disc most of the way but not all the way around. HELP pls !

I check tire pressure regularly with an Accu-gage.My wheels are tubless spoke options.I check spokes regularly.
I dont like letting dealer employees fix any of my cars when under warranty unless it's something catastrophic.Same with a bike.If it's easy I'd feel better about it if I do it.
I can guarantee you they will tell me I need a new tire.Yea,maybe,but thats just a bandaid for whatever actually needs fixed.My tire was fine untill This wobble started a couple weeks ago.It has less than 12k mi.
I've had a lot of weird tire wear in my life but never one side showing more wear.
I did call the dealer and they told me with a one day notice I could bring it in and wait around. I like that.

My FLHP will do a tank slapper if I let go of the bars at about 35 mph. Went to the dealer numerous times, still does it. Front tire cups too. I just don't let go of the bars.
