What would Cause Handle Bar shake?
Went out for a ride yesterday afternoon. On the way home after an hour I took my hands off the bars and they started to shake almost violently. (quickly grabbed them to avoid wrecking) The bike only has 2600 miles. This was my first ride since last summer. I checked the tire pressure and it was fine. Has anyone else ever had a problem with front end shimmy?
On a side note when I warmed the bike up yesterday the handle bars themselves had alot more vibration then before. Any help or advise is appreciated.
Thanks,
Frank

This has come up before and generally seems to be related to preload on the neck bearing:

As noted in this other thread, there's an HD service bulletin on the subject. My '09 Road Glide has the same issue and I have yet to deal with, so I keep my hands on the grips.
