I have a pretty good oscillation from about 55mph down to 45 mph when taking my hands off the bars. Above 55 no problem, below 40 no problem. As posted earlier bike is all stock with 8K for miles with original tires. Front tire looks great. Back is starting to flatten across the middle front pressure is 28 cold and rear is 32, according to 2 guages. Might bump them up a couple psi each. Per the chain adjuster guides (I know questionable) both sides are about 2 1/2 notches from the front. Each adjuster has 6 threads showing behind the locking nut. With stock exhaust it is hard to get a measure from the axle to the swingarm pivot.

I tried one other thing. I removed the chain guard. I measured the clearance from the front of the rim to the swingarm. The left side had about a 1/2 inch more clearance than the right. To me the swingarm looks symmetrical. Has anyone noticed less clearance on the right?
