I can't offer any possible solutions but can say, I've never had a problem like that at any speeds 75 or above.&nbsp\\; Hope you get it solved.&nbsp\\; I would work on the dealer.

Wow, that sounds spooky.&nbsp\\; I have an '07 Street Bob.&nbsp\\; I have never had any wobble, windshield or no windshield, and frequently hit 100mph.

Ever check your tire pressure?

I didn't get a chance to go to the dealer yesterday but just wore a sleevless shirt and went out for a ride, hit 80 mph but tucked my arms into the handlebars and it went straight as an arrow... not too comfortable for longer rides, i haven't checked the tire pressure, i will check that today and let you guys know!!! Although i'd feel like a true rookie I sure would love it to be the solution!!!!

I am having this same problem on my Street Bob. I got a new Dunlop tire put on the front, and it seems like it's worse now if anything. I put a Super Brace on the forks, and it definitely helped. It's still pretty bad though. Anyone have any other ideas or solutions?

I feel it cornering when I'm up over 80 mph or passing people on the highway. When I'm going straight there's no wobble.
