The motorcycle becomes unstable and has a "death wobble". I purchased the motorcycle new from a Harley Davidson dealer and all service has been perform by the same dealer. The death wobble occurs at various situations including highway speed turns and straight high speed (~75-80 mph). This has occurred during calm and windy days. There was not rain and pavement was dry at the time of the incidents. The motorcycle continues to exhibit the "death wobble" at a variety of conditions not mentioned above, it is hard to guess when it will occur. I took it to the Harley Davidson dealer at ~200 miles…

Unknown or Other · reported Jun 9, 2025

Harley redesigned their fairings on the 2024+ Street Glides, and have had issues with "death wobble" at higher speeds. When going down the Interstate at 80+ MPH, the bike has terrible front end wobble which you cannot accelerate or decelerate out of the wobble. You have to almost come to a complete stop before the death wobble goes away. I have taken the motorcycle to 2 different dealerships and neither one could duplicate the problem. These motorcycles are not safe at all! Harley needs to address this issue and come up with an actual fix for these issues.
