Default RE: Front end wobble

my wobble was the front wheel bearings. they were replaced under warranty and my dealer did it on walk in because he said it was safety issue.

Springer to Springer there is a FANTASTIC chance that the problem is a steering neck adjustment away from being fixed, i had one at about 10K, &amp\\; that fixed it right up! It worked great...

This is all good advise. Double check balanceing also, If all these things listed in this thread are checked and the problem remains, could be a bad belt in the tire. Have seen that a time or two.

Good Luck
