Death wobble
I just had a bunch of motor work and powder coating done to the triple tree, wheels, and fork sliders. So I am coming back from the dyno and I get on the interstate and notice a wobble, I think nothing of it then 5-10 minutes later I go to get by a semi doing 80-85mph. The bike violently shakes for ten seconds and stops. It was unlike anything I have ever encountered. I get it home and there is no weights on the wheels. Could this have caused such a violent response?

i just wonder if the powder coating had anything to do with it. I just called my shop and I am taking it back tomorrow. The good news though it dynoed at 113hp and 118lbs/tq. The bad news, who the heck wants to ride it.

I had my wheels PC'd and never noticed any wobble, my suggestion would be to put dyna beads in.Those things are great!!!! I have heard them now putting them in tubed tires, i thought they was for tubeless only.
