 On my kawasaki vulcan nomad 1600 '08 i get a severe wobble in the steering when decelerating with a very light grip on the handle bars. i just brought it to the local dealer and they looked at a few things and tell me it is normal. i have went onto several website looking for nomad steering wobble and to my surprise most have this problem and are being told it is normal. this i am sure has resulted in crashes and possibly death. i do have a video of the problem if you would like to see this normal occurrence please help us riders if this was a car that wobbled or shook it would be a problem thanks jim crossen *tr
