| Description of the problem | There is a speed wobble starting in the 60's and continuing through the 70's+ on straight roads and curves. This has been happening for years and i still continue to spend money adjusting etc. The bike i've spent thousands in labor and parts to fix and or adjust the bike without success. I've called harley davidson more than once to be told that they are not aware of an issue and i'm on my own because it is out of warranty. I've researched the internet to find dozens of news and private complaints to the problem. Even a class action suit website. |
