So I finally solved my charging issued on my bike after determining the replacement regulator was bad. Ever since iv'e been riding around like crazy. Over 300 miles in the past couple days.
I just have one problem my bike has a terrible wobble at anything over like 55 mph that, like the title describes, will have you quenching like crazy. it is very unstable and almost any bump in the road will send it into a gnarly wobble. Not a weave back in forth more like a quick shake of the front wheel. It nearly sent me down when it first happened at about 70mph where my bike likes to cruise. Its worse at higher speeds. I can even purposely initiate a small wobble at lower speeds by quickly tapping one side of the handle bars.
I've read somewhere that these bikes can go 86 mph "safely" and 70 isnt close to that. Has anyone had any trouble with things like this. Bike is all stock and the tires look brand new.
The only lead i have is that soft front forks can cause it. Ill be replacing the oil soon. Im eventually going for a cafe build so i want a real sporty suspension. Is 20w oil alright or can i go higher than that?
