Front end shimmy or shake

(06-28-2019, 08:44 AM)SportsterDoc_imp Wrote: When I relaced the stock Dunlops at ~10,500 miles (8 months riding), the rear was replaced for wear and the front for cuppling. I did not brake hard, cornering was not agressive and tires were not underinflated.

If that were a rear tire, I'd increase tire pressue 2-4 PSI and then smoke it a few times.

But, once the wear starts, it is nigh unto impossible to halt.

Still suggest 38 PSI in the front..


This is the fourth front I’ve put on. Thinking back this never happened before this tire, I just put the fifth back tire on. Bike has over 58,000 on it. I’m going to check the swingarm next. I’ll try 38 in front too.
