Road Glide front end wobble
#13
I have a 2010 Ultra. Nasty front wheel wobble at exactly 30 mph Not sure if it is in 2nd with high rpms, or 3rd with loe rpms. It is probably with the low rpm. I just get on the throttle and dont worry about it. Nothing haas ever happened. I know people on the web site have complained about it before. I can handle the bike a very low speeds no problem.
Don't pay it any mind. I think the more you try to fix things, the more screwed up they get

I too have a RGU and it suffered the same thing. I tightened the head set so the fall away swing was ~1 full swing instead of what the book said and no more problem for the last 12,000 miles or so. It is an easy adjustment to make and takes about 1/2 an hour the first time you do it as the SErvice Manual does not have a real good discription of how to do it. once you figure it out it is very easy. I made the tool with a length of round stock.

mine was at about 3 swings and I had the wobble while decelerating from just above 40mph with my hands off the handlebars.
I adjusted it to less than one swing and the wobble is GONE, the bike is rock solid and stable.
