| | True-Track, Inc sells a solution. They attribute the wobble to the rubber mounted swing arm. Visit their web site at: http://www.true-track.com/

| | Has this issue been resolved in the newer models? I am considering an 05' or 06' road king.

| | DAKING,
I had the same problem on a curve stretch of road that had a slight dip in the pavement. I was taking the curve a little hot and holy moly, she (my RK) darn near left me. Definitely got my attention. When I got home I checked several things, but first and foremost was tire pressure and the pressure in the shocks. All were slightly low, and after pressures were adjusted, I cautiously tried that same curve with better results this time. Believe me, that's relief. Ever since then I am religious about checking pressures, tire and shocks, as well as keeping an eye on adjustments. The FLH's still provide the nicest ride outta the stable. I'd recommend one to anyone.

| | I had a few small wobbles on my 01 electraglide standard at about 140kmph when my back tire was on its last legs and getting a little squared off. A new back tire and the wobble hasn't come back.

| | So, any word on a new frame for the FL series? Both of the bikes I have had move around in the corners, but TaxiKAB has the right idea, keep up on the pressures, and you won't get the big eyes!
