tighten up neck nut.....still wobble

to start a little short story 06 rk air ride in front and back, replaced stock rim with 23 and installed the arlen ness 7 and 7 triple trees. I had a wobble at high speeds so I took the info given on here to help me and made the adjustment reconnected everything and seem to still have wobble. I do have a batwing on front as well. I know there is something I could do to make it stop, and before everyone says "yea return it to stock". I want to exhaust everything. please help and thank you

Don't know how relevant this would be,but my wobble issue was from the tires. I replaced the front tire and wobble is now gone.

The front tire has always been the culprit for me as well.

You've made a lot of changes. Always start with the simple stuff first.

Tire balanced? Is it a new tire? Are you sure install is correct? 23" is a tall tire and you have changed the rake. Lots of possibilities....and as stated, start with the easiest fist.

My first call would be to Arlen Ness and see what their recommendation would be. They are selling parts that change the neck geometry, I'm sure they have dealt with issues like yours in the past.
