I have an 07 FLSTC with 15,000 miles. I was driving to work the other day and noticed a weird wobble. At first it was like my front tire was going down so I kicked the front tire at a stop light and it was good. Then I shook the handlebars at a dead stop and noticed the bike literaly was wobbling sitting still. felt like it was coming from the neck. Got home and threw her on the cycle jack checked tire pressures, checked to make sure the front and rear spokes were tight, checked the front and rear axils, motor mounts and swing arm shocks and hardware. Everything looked good. Performed the fall away and everytthing looks good there. cant find anything. did notice there was a 1/8" gap between the lower triple tree bracket and the neck, is this normal? Like I said at a stop shaking the bars causes the whole bike to wobble! Did a search and couldnt find anybody with symptoms quite like this. any help would be much appreciated. And no the bike wont be going to the stealer as I dont have that kind of cash.

 

lots of things... broken spring(s) on the forks??

 

Oh MAN im an idot! I checked everything known to man, was gettin ready to pull off the front end. Then I thought hmm let me check the rear end one more time and low and behold found several spokes loose on the rear. went around the wheel and good to go. Moral of the story measure twice and cut once! never had spokes come loose like that on any of my other bikes but hey first for everything.

 

yea that saved you $98 dealer bucks. now count that as money for more chrome
