    Cool Front Wheel Wobble at SLOW Speed

    I recently purchased a 2003 Electra Glide Ultra Classic with a 2007 CSC Conversion. I have a major front wheel wobble, only at very slow speeds. She's smooth as silk at anything over 15 or 20 mph. I read some discussions here before about Bazooka's rake kits, but I can't find them now. I'm also having trouble finding a steering dampener that will fit the Ultra. Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    I'm sure Zook will be along soon to direct you to the right parts.

    have you checked the steering head bearing tightness? It needs to be tighter then what is specified for a 2 wheel setup. Also if it is not raked that will also help the issue but the bearing still will need to be tighter. Both is what makes the difference. Even then it still may have a slight shake but not objectionable. PM Bazooka for a rake kit.

    When we had a GL1500 with a standard front end there was a low speed wobble. Nothing dangerous, but noticeable. Added a rake kit, and not only did the ease of steering improve but the wobble went away.
