So I was riding to work this morning, and I had mess with something. I let both my hands off the bars about 45ish... there is a shimmy in my front end, if I look at the headlight housing I can see it rattle back and forth..... is this common? I have never ever seen this on other bikes, btw the bike is a 2007 Road King.

 

likely wear on the front tire. mine does it too. tire is worn and road is crowned.

 

hard to believe it would be the tire wear.. bike only has 1900 miles on it.. lol.. I might have to mention it when I take it in for service or next time I take a gander through the shop. Thanks for the input though. I appreciate it. Ride Safe.

 

Be sure to check tire p[ressure also. Several of the other members have reported shimmy with low front tire pressure.

 

Happened to me.

 

Not sure what wheels you have, but I had the same issue, and after ripping the front end down checking everything out - found out the rear spokes were loose.
