Hey guys, I have been on this forum for a while, reading and learning. But now I need your help.
I just put a new set of Holeshot HDs on the rear stock rims of my R. The machine ran smooth as silk before changing rear tires, and now it starts shaking so violently in 4th gear that it is scary, it feels like it is going to break the frame.
Checked the obvious things, lug nuts, hub nuts, air pressure (4lbs), there is no doubt about the beads seating, I distinctly heard 2 beads pop on each tire.
I always expect tires to be a little unbalanced, but this is just plain scary, there is no way anybody would have the nerve to open it up in 5th.
I just wondered if anyone else has had this problem, and if so what was the solution?
Thanks
G.D.
