We tried the obvious things changing the fluid and seals in the front forks he even bought a stabilizer but none of it seemed to help. IS there anything that we are overlooking or is there anybody out there with the same problem?
Many things could be the origin of those wobbles, therefore your friend has a long list of things to check:
- Too rigid hold of handlebar.
- Out of dynamic balance (side to side) tires.
- Out of alignment wheels.
- Worn or frozen-links chain (chain latching).
- Lack of weights in the ends of the handlebars.
- Loose bearings: wheels, swing-arm and/or steering column.
- Deviations in pitch geometry: too tall front and or too low rear.
- Tall and/or heavy tail luggage.
