Well Damn it. took it in to the Harley house, told them I thought it might be in the swing arm. They said it had loose spokes on the front and rear. Well maybe so, thanks for handling that boys, but the F###ing problem is still there. Nice....real nice.
Don't feel so bad. I've been having an overheating problem with my truck so I took it right across the street to the mechanic because I changed the thermostat and it didn't resolve the issue. Ya know what he tells me? He said "add some stop leak to it." WTF! Why?! It's not leaking. It's overheating, **** for brains.
I fixed it myself.
Moral of the story. If they won't at least check the swingarm, suck it up and check it yourself. It would be very rewarding to resolve the issue on your own if in fact the swingarm (and I'm assuming the bushings/bearings may be loose.)
Or... keep taking it back to them until they do fix it.
