I've tried everything on this Dyna,- now i am pretty light (150lbs) so that may be part of it....only thing i haven't replaced is the bushings (swingarm as mentioned earlier).

If i have a passenger its better but still there, and every year i get a scare that makes me want to go back to a sportster

If the Forty Eight was i bit better laid out i would maybe look at that but she's really tiny and in no way could do the long trips i like....going to try a few more things before i give up ( stock height and the True Track) but it has been years of this

that sounds just like mine before I replaced the Swingarm bushings and shaft.

So you think that should happen first?....(before i go True Track)? The bushings look great and no play in the rear when we check it.....hmmmmmm

I have been watching this site for years...reading up on True Track but being a skeptical for sure...are you running one?

not running a true tracker.when mine had the wobble,didn't seem like much play,but I think it needs to be almost a press fit.
