Default Front wobble

Hi, just bought a 2010 Tri Glide and at slow speeds on a not so smooth road, the front starts to wobble, and feels like if I did not hold on tight, the front wheel would break off, can anyone tell me what's wrong, and what can be done to fix it.

Hi from the UK and welcome to HDF. Another possibility is tyre pressure, also tyre condition. We also have a trike section, where you can meet other Tri Glide owners here.
