Joel, did I forget to mention that mine also produced the wobble during
deceleration? I used to have this habit of taking my hands off the bars and
sit up straight when I approached intersections that required me to stop.
This would give me a little break for body position. When I began riding my
Trophy which had the wobble, I tried this same habit and that's when the
wobble would happen. After I replaced both front and rear tires (at the same
time) the first thing I tried was to let my hands off the bars during the
coast down and the wobble was gone for ever.
