When you say deceleration wobble, are you guys saying when you let your hands off the bars they wobble back and forth more than a few inches?
Mine does that now but they wobble mildly, I guess I would put it. They may an inch or so back and forth....certainly not a tank slapper or even close.
Not a tank slapper, just a few inches when backing off the throttle with hands still on handle bars.

Gotcha... mine does that now if i take my hands off the bars and I cannot figure out what it is. The only thing I haven't done is replaced the front tire and that is because I am trying to make it through this riding season before doing it over winter.
Mine doesn't do it with my hands on the bars...only if i remove both hands and decell. To me, it doesn't feel unsafe and even at 70+ I don't feel unsafe...but it is annoying.
