I had a brand new 2010 ultra limited that would wobble . I did not know what was causing the issue,and it showed up big time 2 up pulling a trailer in a long sweeper.Now I know what I was feeling. I now have a 2012 and have not noticed it wobble. I have not pulled a trailer with the 2012 yet. It looks like this will be going on it this winter. I would rather not ever feel the wobble and this simply put makes the bike safer. Thanks for the info.
