my buddy own this '16 Road Glide and get that front end wobble when he's on high speed

Harley's "fix" was always just tightening the steering bearings and checking the handlebar movement with the front wheel up.

His bike's solid as a rock over 110. BUT, get this: cruising in third around 45 mph, let off the gas, and take his hands off for a sec (like to adjusting gloves), and BAM! Violent wobble, man, like it's gonna turn into a full on tank slapper.

Crazy, right?! You seen this on any of the new Road Glides or Street Glides? How to fix this?

That can stem from steering head bearings, tire pressure or wheel alignment. Adjust the steering bearings and check tire pressure for both wheels. If the wobble continues, scan the front tire for wear or cupping and confirm rear wheel alignment. Man, that suuuucks.
