    My front end on my 883c (standard) was getting the wobbles in the front end when I took most of grip off the bars around 60-80km, anything faster or slower is ok... I took to harley heaven in melb they blamed the main front end steering and low tyre pressure....although they said 2 times...there was no leaks?? (someone at work said it might be leaking around the seams?) anyway, they adjusted the front end and threw some air in it and it fixed it ..... for a while..... now its back....I plan to take to Andrew at AA Customs soon as I have the paper...

    In all seriousness  there is many things that can cause it. From new I have seen many bike with fork oil levels different from side to side ( in one case it was 60mls). By fitting a fork brace if all it has done is tame it then the original problem is still there.... I'd be looking for the reason why before adding things into the mix.

    Thanks for the heads up mate, will drain the oil as soon as i find the plug and then start again, will check on quantities also, as am not sure...
