I've never heard of a Dyna wobbling for no reason and i've been around longer than Dyna's. I have one with 95,000 miles and it's sure never wobbled. I've rode with countless people riding hard at high speeds on Dynas and never seen a wobble. Never heard of anyone mention a Dyna wobbling. My conclusion has to be that Dyna's don't wobble and someone just made up the term "Dyna Death Wobble"
It would be like renaming a tank slapper the Dyna Death Slapper 😂

Because I love my poorly designed, rubber mounted piece of **** bike more then any other soul-less, German or Jap bike you would probably call properly designed. Even when I had a couple of those new softails that you must love, I sold them and went back to my Dyna. Let people like what they like, and go support what you like. Stop bashing something just because you dont like it. Dont understand people that have the need to do that. I really dont.

I satisfied my need for speed, handling and the latest technology when I bought my Kaw Z900RS last winter.
I also replaced my aging Stage II Road King with an '02, Stage I, Dyna Lowrider this past September. I have no intentions of any further upgrades to it at this time. I just ride the damn thing, a lot.
(It's funny, when I feel the need to just go for a ride, the Harley is usually my first choice.)

Anyways, Ive only stated facts. Nothing more, nothing less, havent even given my own opinions yet lol. And people getting butt hurt by actual scientifically facts about the Dynas rubber mount PROVEN issues looool.
Well, I shouldve been smarter thinking I could enlighten others about the problem and how to fix it, but then again, we are people. We are build differently. Some can handle the truth, others cant. Some are open minded, others are closing their eyes and ears but not their mouth. Thank god were different, I guess
Never experienced it, although I have eliminated it for a few peope on various models. Head bearings, swingarm bushings, tires, to motor mounts.
Maintaining a bike along the way is important.

After company spin balance
After I allowed the company service to install tires. I bought new tires and they did a spin balance. When they tighten the axle nuts too tight on the spin machine my front bearings were toast. They never said anything. On a long ride my front end wobbled above highway speed. After a glance I could see bearing falling on the ground in front of me. Yikes!!! However a good thing came of the situation, the dealer charged 10% less to smooth the run and a new set of bearings.

Karen, I like it when you suddenly think you exactly know what I like or not. You know me better than myself. Amazing.
