    Default Vn Wobbles at 80+ kph But its not the wheel balance

    Hey guys,
    My VN v6 has the steering wheel shaking at around 80-100kph.
    Its not the balance as i had that redone and it didnt fix it so before i take it to a mechanic im wondering what else could cause this. Dead bushes? Dead tie rod ends? SwayBar? im not too sure what it would likely be but seeing as its a 1000 dollar daily i dont wanna pay a fortune for repairs so ill be doing it all myself (replacement wise)
    What should i be looking at as possibly damaged?
    Cheers

    Some say less talk more action. But I rekon more torque less traction!

    Felt dumb when i realised i hadnt searched first. so going to check these first.

    For a car to wobbel, somthing is bent..loose..or worn, but could be more..
    So check:
    Engine & Transmission Mounts
    Check Drive Line shaft.. Should be nice'n and straight to the diff.
    Check the Tail Shaft.. if it moves to much, it can cause your wobble..
    Give your Diff a service, chances are its getting old..and worn.
    Check all the Rubber Mounts to (Bushes)
