Wobble/front fork ?
So tonigh I'm riding and I think I feel a wobble. It's more of an up and down not side to side, and it might have just been the road and then my head.
Anyway could it be the dyna beads?
Or maybe the forks? I think I might have a broken fork seal, but waiting until fall to have it looked at. But could that be the reason.
Also I started looking at the forks, and noticed that there is a hole in the bottom left fork (rotor side) it doesn't feel threaded but is there supposed to be a bolt or anything there?

I agree with Blk and Chrome...you've probably got stearing head bearing adjustment problems. My indy showed me how to do mine...the manual has you going way to far to get to them. The actual adjuster nut is under that big chrome fork stem bolt up top. The real trick though is to loosen the two fork pinch bolts on the fork bracket. Stealership said they adjusted mine but it still shook like a pole dancer. My indy did it the right way and I can ride it no hands from Florida to Minnesota!
