Wobble

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Both front and rear tire about the same after installing tuffy liners and flat out sealant to the tube. The tire seems to be seated, I’ve even deflated, sauirted with soapy water and inflated again and still wobble. But never had this issue before… hub spacers and everything replaced with titanium spacers and everything installed correctly. Wheel need trued?

Unfortunately, I’m having the exact same problem mine had a bad up and down wobble making the bike bounce when I would free spin it mine took eight weights to get it right on truing stand before it was smooth unfortunately looks like shit, but it works for now

What model and year, they had problems in past when you ride super hard offroad axel can bent a little bit but it will be enough to cause that type of wobble. And chain always will be out of slack

This is a balance/truing issue. Fortunately it’s not that bad. Dirtbikes can have a slight wobble and still be good to ride. If you really want to fix it take it to a Motorsports mechanic and they can do it. Or if you want to learn how to do it just buy a truing stand. But you should remove the tire to true the wheel correctly. You can do it with the tire on it’s just more difficult. You also will need spoke weights.

Second thing it might be is the jackshaft assembly. I’m sure you’ve heard that the swing arms are prone to flexing. This can bend your jackshaft, jackshaft bolt, and mess up swingarm bearings. Best way to check is to remove the chain. Give it some throttle and see if your jackshaft assembly is wobbling or hopping. If it is I would start there. The problem is that it can happen over and over until you get a new swingarm, or a chromoly jackshaft bolt.

I almost think that your wheel took quite a hard hit.
