good service hard to find

Hey, new to the board. (2003 silver/gray) Great place for info.

purchased the 2003 silver/gray in september. put about 3500 miles on her since. recently went riding with my lady and hit a pot hole. no visual damage to the rim or tire, yet I began to feel a slight wobble in the front wheel. the fork seals do not appear to be leaking. the wobble is most noticeable between 35-55mph and during deceleratrion. at high speeds the bike feels very stable. took her up to 160mph this weekend and she felt just fine. I went to the dealer to get it checked out and they charged me $40.00 to balance the front wheel and said the problem was fixed.
well, the wobble is still there and I'm getting really annoyed. looking for some suggestions on troubleshooting.
Also looking for a place to service my bike. not to confident in the service tech at the dealer. had problems before.
Any riders in the bronx or new york city area know of a reputable place that can look into my problem?

that is not wheel balance that is steering head bearing that is out of preload adjustment

And if the bike was purchased in Sept. it's still under warranty and they shouldn't be charging you a penny.

You didn't mention hitting the pot hole did you?

no, i did not tell them about the pothole.
steering head bearing adjustment? can anybody give me a quick breakdown of what that entails. i want to go to the dealer armed with as much info as possible.

The problem could be a number things, the main thing is you have a front end wobble which could eventually cause a serious problem. That is what warranties are for. If the dealer won't fix it complain to American Suzuki.

I don't know if you have fixed the problem yet but check the tire to see if there is a bubble. I've had is happen on my car and i got wobble a slow speeds but seem to disappear at higher speeds. It's a result of broken belts inside the tire itself. Let us know what happens...

I went back to the dealer and asked hime to road test to feel what I was feeling. the tech guy takes it out for a spin and say nothing is wrong with it. I'm looking to take it to another dealer cuz I know I'm not imagining the wobble, however slight it is.
Thanks for the input guys, and I'll also looking into any bubbles in the tire.
