Replaced back tire on my 07 Rebel a few weeks ago. Went down the road, hit 45 and my bike shook so bad I could barely see. Took the bike back, they determined it to be faulty and replaced the tire.
I've put roughly 150-200 miles on the replacement tire. I still have a shake above 45MPH and when I lean to either side (more noticeable on the left side, or I'm just taking a lot of left curves). It's not constant shaking, almost feels like every third beat.
This WASN'T the case before I replaced the tire. I live up in the mountains of Western NC and I took the bike all over curvy, mountain roads the weekend before and she was as smooth as butter.
Could this be a suspension issue, or still a tire issue? I'm tired (ha-ha) of dealing with this service department at this point and I can't feel like my luck would be bad enough to get two bum tires in a row.
