Has anyone else experienced this? I have an 07 outty 800 with updated

h.d front springs. If you drive around 30mph over washboard in sand or over

small exposed rocks (maybe up to 2") protruding from old logging roads, I get

a really bad shake from side to side. It tries to tear the handlebars from your

hands & shakes my feet from the foot bars. My springs are adjusted on the

lowest setting. Do not know how this bike would handle with stock springs

as I had the dealer replace the springs when I bought it. I also have itp rims

& bearclaw tires which may be magnifying this situation as the offset moves

the wheels about an inch outward from stock. These springs are the one piece

spring in which the wire must be close to twice the diameter of the stock spring.

Any suggestions?
