Check for dirt in the bead of your rim.

The rim may be slightly bent, you just don't see it when it is not rolling. Also, take the rim off the hub, and make sure there is nothing between the rim and the hub. I don't know why there would be, but it doesn't hurt to check.

It wiggles when you move it with your hand? Try tightening up the nuts on your tie rod ends.

that is normally a bearing or a tie rod issue that would make it do that.

If everything is tight, it's either your bearings or tie rod ends loose. Or, your balljoints may be shot.

If it's none of those, I don't know what else it would be.

If your bars are not moving, the tie rod end is loose. Don't forget the ones that attach to the stem.

If it is just moving side-to-side and not up-down, that is also a sure sign of tie rod looseness:p

You prol. have a bad hub. I have the same problem with mine and with mine my bearing literally fell into the Hub and you should have to have them pressed in, this is causing the the hub to wiggle on the spindle.

If you checked everything else out, then this is prol. your problem as well. They are almost 200.00 thrwe Service Honda

I think I should try and shop around for aftermarket this time around if the price doesnt kill me .

:scary: :ermm:
