Front right fork shakes bad.
lowered my 2001 RK notice one fork has a dampner in it and the other fork is standard cartridge. but the front end wobbles and at high speeds you can see the right fork bouncing up and down. any advise?

If you are not mechanically inclined have someone who is look at it, the only thing I can think of is a loose axle nut or misaligned axle but it can be a bunch of things.
One thing for certain, DONT RIDE IT until you determine what's happening.

If the triple tree and the axle are tight to the forks it is one unit tide together. I having a hard time picturing that one folk tube is independent from the other.
So tighten the axle and the clamps on the triple tree.

all are tight
the front end bolts, axle are are tight. it feels like the spring in the shock are bouncing against the wall. I'm going to pull it out and chceck the fluid levels. one side is stiffer than the other.
