Fat Boy Lo Wobble
#11
#12
I finally took mine over to the dealer and sure enough...he said it was my neck bearings and that it was pretty bad. I had the 1000 mile service done at a different dealer and they told me that they obviously never even touched that adjustment and they should have. HD wouldn't warrantly the work because they said it was a "serviceable" adjustment. But my dealer was nice enough to cover the 1 1/2 hours of labor it took to do the adjustment for me. Now I have to get the other dealer on the line and BITCH SLAP the hell out them!

There are sooooooo many threads about this. I spent thousands trying to get rid of the wobble and then found it was the 39" wide bars that I had installed - when I switched to T bars it went away. Its the physics of the bike, wide bars, solid wheel and a bolt upright riding position.
Make sure you tyres are in good condition and pressure, loosen your grip, relax your shoulders and get used to riding a harley!!!

wobble on front end
I just have had at 915 miles on my new fat boy lo the same wobble at or about 30-50 miles an hour. I had my bike serviced for 1000 mile service and they tightened my front end nut like everyone has been talking about and the complete service cost me 270 bucks. Everything is back to normal I guess this is something that I have to get tightened up every now and then. Because of fear from the dealership of overtightening.

Same problem on my Fat Boy Lo
Folks,
I have the wobble as well. I can definitely feel/see it between 45-35mph during deceleration... Will have to take back to the stealer to get it looked at and fixed. I had the 1000 mile service (about $250) but they didn't touch it. They will this next time! Other than that, I love the bike. I have about 1500 miles on her now.
