[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1338810, member: 19880"] Front end wobble is almost certainly an issue with a front tire. Check inflation (40 psi is good) but there is a pretty good chance it needs replacement. (Not simply balance) Could be rear tire or possibly steering head torque (too loose) but far more likely the front tire. Don't modify the rear fender! Some people have "cropped" them to reduce the slightly dorky appearance but have suffered when riding in the rain! Never heard of anyone who was happy with the result. You may (eventually) want to do something with the stock seat, if that is what's on it. After 500 miles or so in a day, that slab of foam feels like a slab of lumber. A little warm at a stop but almost never an issue if moving. Make sure the appropriate insulation is in place on the inside of the body panels and under the tank. [/QUOTE]
