Default 21 DNA fat spoke wheel

I have a 2010 FLHX that I have put a 21 inch DNA fat spoke wheel on it and I am having wheel wobble at 65 to 75 mph. I was wondering what I can do to stop this problem. The wheel has dyna beeds in it do I need to use wheel weights?

Up the tire pressure a few pounds. tire pressures as far as I am concerned are round about pressures. Some tires need more some less to get the right feel for ya. I had a dna spoke on the frt of mine a went thru the same. Started playing with the pressure in it and got it to ride pretty good.
Good Luck!

My brother had the same problem. Took his to different shop and they said his beads were about 4oz low, but they also didn't recommend them on a tubeless spoked wheel. Something about the way the beads get caught in the rubber sealant or something. I'm not saying the beads are bad, in fact I know a ton of people who use them. My brother went with weights and problem solved
