Experiencing Some Headbar Shake

Bike tyres / wheels are normally "static" balanced.
The tyre/wheel is put on an axle and the lightest point gets weight until the wheel no longer has a heavy point.
Car wheels/tyres are "dynamically" balanced - they spin up the wheel and it detects side shake as well as out of balance.
Unless the bike tyre fitter is in the habbit of checking wheels for being straight the "static" balancing system will never pick up a slight buckle.
