wobbleing baggers?

[ol38y]

The HD baggers are notorious for shaking their head with a high speed wobble. That's why Laura Klock doesn't ride her HD bagger anymore. The problem originates in the rubber mounted swingarm/rear engine mount. The trees are a small part of the problem also. You can fix the biggest part of the problem by getting the poly rear engine/swingarm bushings. The engine stabilizer that mounts under the oil pan will help some but I personally don't think it's worth the price they get for them. That's what you can do with off the shelf parts. If you want more find someone with a frame jig and a welder...

Dilly, is your wobble under power or on shut down?  Is there something that triggers it?

In my experience, the answer to all your questions is yes...

Who's got the photo of the bagger with the pinwheel guy at El Mirage a couple of years ago.  I can't find it.

That thing looked scary sitting still. They had made numerous frame modifications to it. I don't remember the particulars though.

That'll teach me to read further in the thread!    :-P

It might be good to slow down on that thing while you are still alive.
