Very bad wobbling while touring.

As stated earlier double check the swing arm bearings, rear wheel bearings, rear tire condition and the shocks, if loose or worn out, and the rear brake rotor for being out of round and glazed spots on the rotor, this will cause the pads to grip and release as the rotor goes around, I have after market front disc brakes on my '02 PT Cruiser and they have done this, caused by improper "setting" of the brake pads, you might also want to check the front brake rotor for the same thing.
Hope this helps.

Thanks all for the advice. I'm using the stock 06 wheel. I shall go to my mech and tell him to check for the following
front wheel bearings, rear wheel bearings, both rotor, swingarm bearings. Anything else?
Anyway my whole front wobbles, not just the handlebar. However my friend who was there driving behind while I was touring with my mates felt that the handlebars were the problem. However he is not a mech specialise for Harleys. I'll head down to his shop and voice it out to him. Really love my apes and hope that I can keep it and ride up to Phuket bike week next year.
