 I have a 2002 harley davidson road king. when i ordered the bike i had them install a passenger back rest. the bike is 10 years old 48974 miles. my passenger and i were riding down the street and the back rest support snapped and broke on one side. the break is just above a weld. my guess is it had gotten to hot during the welding. the break is perfectly straight across. almost looks like a it was sawed.i came way to close to losing my passenger. and she isn't a big girl about 120 lbs.

 Re: 2002 harley davidson flhri several times, during high speed (> 55mph) turns(sweepers) i have felt a rear wheel woble. according to internet boards and independant shops, this is a common problem. there have even been aftermarket products that address this problem. my experience with harley davidson dealerships has ranged from denial of the problem to being told that this is normal and safe for tc-88 line of touring mootorcycles. the wobble, however does not feel safe by any means. all drivetrain and suspension components have been checked and are found to be within specs. no remedies are offered by harley davidson.
