Default Front Wobble

Anyone know what would cause my handlebars to wobble back and forth quickly when deaccellerating. This is especially true when coming off of freeway off-ramps and I only experience it when I let go of the handlebars.

Both hands off the handlebar? Dose it do it when you have your hands on the handlebars?

my uneducated opionion would be a bad front tire. when you break it throws a bigger foot print on the ground. If the tire has worn wrong it could cause problems. That would be were i would look first. Google it.

A rotor wouldn't only be when he takes his hands off the clip-ons...
