Harley fishtails when breaking
#1
I just purchased a 2005 Heritage softail and it fishtails on occasion when I apply the breaks... It even did it when I applied the breaks at 30 MPH. Any idea what would cause this to happen? I am an experienced rider with my prior bike.. Honda Shadow Aero 750 and never experienced the problem before. The bike only has 11,000 miles on it, so the pads should be AOK?
Lastly can ABS breaks be installed on this bike if that would be the answer to the problem?
Thank you in advance
I want to add that I had the forks polished. In order to do so the mechanic had to remove the caliper and wheel. Is there something he may have done incorrectly when he reinstalled the caliper?
