Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2003 honda vtx1300s... during deceleration at about 40-45 mph the front end of the motorcycle will start to shake vigorously. took it to the dealer and they over torqued the head bearing which quieted it down a little. i feel this is not a good fix, but instead a "rig" of some sort to say that this bike does not have any problem with the front end shakes. i, along with others who own this bike, have brought this up to our dealers and to honda themselves and they claim there is nothing wrong with the bike. *jb
