I have....but I'm kind of a "light-weight" compared to most of the giant chunks of human here on the board , I only tip the scale at about 210 . First time it happened was when I unloaded it off the truck , just after buyin' her . The boys were standin' around admiring her , when I was about to leave, they asked for the big wheelie . So... I stomped on it.I have experience a wobble in the rear while at full throttle accelerations and shifting.Has anyone experienced this?
i have it on the stands right now.big e....get her up on the stands...start shakin things...like the wheel...hand at top an bottom....hands side to side...swingarm freeplay....
It's hard to diagnose these things over the net .
Is it side to side?
or vibration?
at the same speed or rpm?
is the tire breaking free , or is the bike just dancing on the tire?
That sounds like it might be the problem, sit on it and roll forward a little, then hit the brakes hard, do the forks move?check out the star nut on top of the triple tree, me and a buddy bought both colors the same day in 99 and where i was amazed at the handling, he complained about it being uneasy and all over the place. I took his for a ride and told him to take it back to the dealer, seems like someone never tighted that "gold star looking nut" on top.
if big o's idea dosen't give any/or enuff feedback , get that front end up off the ground,and pull those lower legs back an' forth. The slightest play will be amplified at speed .That sounds like it might be the problem, sit on it and roll forward a little, then hit the brakes hard, do the forks move?check out the star nut on top of the triple tree, me and a buddy bought both colors the same day in 99 and where i was amazed at the handling, he complained about it being uneasy and all over the place.

Another thing, maybe when you accelerate hard the back tire is breaking loose a little.
