+1, trade it in. That's way too much chit to have to do to a bike to ride down the interstate.

My bikes always been that way,it is the way it is.After all think about how much of a sail you are trying to push through the wind.

My 08 ultra has a similar problem, When I am riding HWY speed, about 65-70 and I loosen my grip on the bars the bike pulls to the left pretty good... Dealer had to change one of my front rotors, i had 2 rights on it from the MOCO.... That helped some, but the dealer just told me to shift my weight to the right, like thats techical help... I have shifted, even opened my left lower vent and left upper vent to put drag on the right side, still no help...

then....

If I am under 4o mph and slowing down, if I loosen my grip and touch the rear brake the handle bars start slowly shimmying, if I were to not stop them they would probably go lock to lock as the shimmy gradually intesifies...

All that in NO wind...

Dealer say no problem with the bike.... My ***
