Hello fellow riders. New to this forum. I have a 2016 RTS with 9700 miles on her. I’ve read many threads about the front end wobble/shake. I have been just living with it for 9 years. I’ve had the right front tire wobble ever since new at about 50-60 mph. It seems to level out over that speed, even at 100mph, no wobble. Kenda tires originally. I had the original dealer swap tires, do a lazer alignment, etc and it still wobbles. Recently changed out tires due to age. Went with Kenda Kanines K20. I’ve also changed brakes and rotors, went through every nut and bolt torque to specs on the right side. Everything seems tight. I had the front tires mounted and balanced with weights, but it still wobbles like it's out of balance. I am in South Carolina, Myrtle Beach area, and the only dealer around here is a crap crooked dealer. I took my rear wheel there after mounting a new tire to get it balanced and the tech there said he never balances the rear tire on any Spyder. Took my tire and got out of there. I recently took tires to a shop in NC and had all 3 installed with balance beads. Had to travel 4 hours away to find a shop that would work on Spyder tires. The Right tire still wobbles. Nothing ever from the left front. I’m at a loss. Can’t see the same side causing issues just due to tire balance or crap Kendas. I can actually watch the tire start to wobble then smooth out as I increase speed and the same slowing down. I Lowered the pressure to 17psi, which seems to have helped a little, and changed the speed where the wobble starts to about 55-65mph. Thoughts and prayers anyone??
