Front end wobble
I have '95 3AJ and it is having a bit of problem with a wagging front end at times. Any suggestions of things to try would be very welcome.
When driving on the freeway, mostly above 60mph/100kph it will start to wobble when switching lanes or entering a turn, usually more of a problem when accelerating/on the gas. Wobble is rather slow, 2 to 3 cycles per second. I have done a few things to the bike but the problem has been there since I got it.
Bike has 6600 miles. I have put in Progressive (brand) springs, the sag is ok. springs are stiffer than stock.
Fresh fork oil, Bel-Ray 10wt. Flushed forks well when changing oil but did not take them apart. oil level set per manual.
Telefix fork brace, (follows road grooves less, still wobbles).
Stock rear shock, spring rate is ok, damping is barely there at all.
New Avon Gripsters on both ends. 30 and 33psi (2bar and 2.2bar)
Cleaned and adjusted head bearings per manual. Bearings look good, no notchy feel.
What might be causing the wobble? Any and all suggestions and ideas will be welcome.
