Mine started wobbling, so the first thing I did was replace all the spokes in the front wheel, as I noticed two of them were bent. That helped a bit, but the motorcycle still wobbled at 75–80 mph.
I then installed a new set of rear shocks (Öhlins HD 762), new front springs, motor mounts, wheel bearings, and neck bearings.
It still wobbles, and I’m out of ideas.

Are all Dynas really that wobbly?
[/QUOTE]

Only when I had worn motor mounts. Happened in a sweeper at about 70.

Both got replaced and no issue. Went back to same sweeper and 100 with one hand was fine.

I probably missed it, but has anybody suggested the True-Track or Sputhe?

Mine is solid you can get a shimmy crossing lanes above 95 acting a fool, which I do every ride.

Stock mounts with 12k on them, one hand at 85 no worries.
