Have a just bought a 2008 Deluxe and the front end wobbles when you let go of the handle bars , but here's the weird thing it only does it at around the 40mph range, if your going slow around 20-30 mph no problem or faster 50 mph and above. It feels perfect when your hands are on bars no shake or anything , I've had bike up to around 90 mph and it rides smooth as glass. It has Metzeler tires and I am thinking that might be where the problem may be, what say you??? Thanks in advance!

 

Id say the tire is messed up.

 

I'd say it's the neck bearings. Tighten them up a quarter turn and see what happens. I just had this exact issue on my Lo and HD did the work for free. They missed it during the 1000 mile service.

 

Loose neck bearings.Been there done that.

 

Another Deluxe rider had a similar complaint a month back. Wobble at around 40 mph as I recall. Turned out the steering head needed adjustment. Maybe you can find the post. It was from TwiggyAz.

 

Thanks for the info guys!

 

If the fall away/neck bearing doesn't do it, check your rear spokes

 

I am a new rider and am happy that I can learn about things like this as I gain more experience... Thanks

 

while trouble shooting for high speed wobble on a 97 fxst (above 65 mph) i substituted with used oe hd 21 " spoker, it produced same wobble as "roadkingfatboy" described. did a static balance & it was off by 1 oz. low speed wobble gone, now just have to find the original high speed wobble.

 

They tightened mine up to and it still wobbles a bit! Even replaced the neck bearings and front wheel and tire!
