Wobbling Honda 200s ATC
I finally got the 200s running and took it for a ride and there's a definite wobble feeling I think from the front. The wheels are true and I can't see them wobbling. I jacked it up and the bearings are tight, no side to side play. I am baffled, the tires don't seem out of round. Can wheel balancing do that? I wouldn't think it would at such slow speeds but I am new to these. I would appreciate any help. Thanks, Billy

A bent axle will do it, you will feel it more on hard pack soil/concreat than sand and soft pack dirt.
Also possibilities:
Is there tire sealant in the tires (slime, or similar)? this will cause a wobble when first starting to ride but gets better as the sealant is disbursed within the tire.
Is your chain in good condition? I had an issue for a while on my 185s where the chain was binding enough to cause a vibration when riding, I even swore the axle was bent when looking at it. I was ready to replace the axle, I only did the chain first only because I had it, and the vibration disappeared.
