Hey so I've been dealing with a wobble on my bike it's happends at random speeds but it seem to happen when I shift my weight and it start to wobble pretty bad, I've replaced my tires and i had a shop check out the neck bearings and they said they we're good so right now I'm at a loss,
have you checked wheel bearings and tyre condition
I put a new year tire on 4 months ago and a new front this past august in sturgis as for the wheel bearings i havent don't anything with those, I thought for sure I'd hear them if they we're going bad no ?

They don't always make noise... at least not at first...
What year is the bike and how many miles have you put on it? Maybe post a picture of it. Could be a lot of things.
it's a 2007 with about 23000 on it right now i know I've been told it could be the motor mounts but i just feel like they should last long then that also it does have the 110 in it

considering the motor mounts are rubber like tires they degrade with time regardless of miles / use as well. And due to the frame design of a dyna, even sitting on the side stand its going to have some torsional force being applied to the motor mount. So its almost always under stress of some sort.
motor mounts are common. I went with a Vibratechnics predator front motor mount before it was ever a problem for me. But a wobble that starts at random or when you shift your weight, sounds unlikely from a bad motor mount that really only shows its head while cornering as a wobble or wondering while trying to ride in a straight line at highway speeds.
I would point to wheel bearings (also not uncommon to fail at such low mileage with 06+ bikes.) Check for loose spokes if you have laced wheels, unbalanced tires, and is your front end true.

My motor mounts were shot with 1000 miles on the bike. The bike is a 2015 and I bought it with 800 miles a year ago. I installed new mounts made sure the engine was aligned correctly and it made a huge difference.
These bikes have a lot of flex in the swing arms. Tru Traks help with that. Motor mounts are also a common problem with these bikes. I would also look at wheel bearings. Lift the bike and check for wobble. I repack my bearings every time I change rubber. Check neck bearings. Process of elimination. Good luck
