I had the fork boots intalled, and I stood by the mechanic and he had an expensive torque wrench and all is in spec 
So there is nothing wrong with torque settings in the forks or tripple tree.
Twisted chassis, hmm I doubt the issue is that extreme Pterodactyl.
I should actually let somebody ride my CB that has also a CB and tell me that its normal what I perceive as a wobbling handle bar.
I'll ask asap 2 fellow countrymen what their experience is with high speed riding.
Head bearing torque I have not checked yet...I dont even know the torque setting, so if somebody could tell me that I can check that out, meanwhile I can do a search on the board.
I suspect the crosswinds, or me being extremely nitpicking.
But if you all say no wobble at all, thats clear and leaves no room for interpretation....
Than again, have those who say that ever ridden at those speeds with a lot of crosswinds??
But lol trading in, you guys really go for a worst case scenario huh
hm hm, that shines another perspective with more details concernikng my small issue.
With or without screen, does make a difference and you talk about turbulence as well, similar to my windy conditions.
lol, what do you mean exactly with "keep that grip loose" ?
at high speed?
shouldnt you be holding your grips firmer than ever as you increase speed
aha, I don't seem to be the only one here

I realize now that there are 2 kinda big weights sitting on the front around each spoke, maybe its an issue of tire balance as well.
Are spoked wheels more sensitive to changes in balance, (since they need adjustment from time to time)?

This wobble would stop when I cleared the turbulent air behind the trucks. This was with my Puig screen installed. Had not felt this wobble when in similar situations sans screen.

Keep that grip loose and I'll guarantee those wobbles go away...
