Has anyone had a problem with metzeler new 23 inch tire. We put tire on two road glides now bikes handle bars shakes at low speeds.

I have had that happen. I had put on a new 21" on my old wide glide that I had. Was fine at speed but started to wobble around 20 mph when slowing down. It was a bad tire. The sidewall varied in thickness. If you run your fingers along the inside and your thumb on the outside you could actually feel the difference. Hope this helps.
