I have a 2009 FXSTB Night Train, the Harley Shop can't seem to get rid of a slight but noticeable and aggravating wobble or shimmy from my handle bars. It starts on deceleration at about 53MPH and the handle bars shimmy/wobble. Also in turns there is a slight wobble as well.
The Harley shop has done the following!
Replaced Tire and with that the direction of tread.
Replaced neck bearings.
Tightened to speck the neck bearings.
Replaced front wheel
Inspected whell bearings.
Still can't get rid of slight but noticeable wobble, yes still under warranty.
No run out on a mag correct? are any other night train owners experiencing this?
Welcome from Arizona. Hard to believe you still have a wobble after all of that. I hope the dealer provides a resolution to your problem by either repair or bike replacement. Sounds like a lemon law candidate.
