All these problems with the 2011-2012's makes me very glad I sold my 2012 street glide back to the dealer and bought a used 09 road king.
 
i would check the wheel bearings i had the same problem in the front of my bike replaced them and it went away
 
I have the same problem with my 2012 Roadking Classic, but it's when I'm slowing down like at a red light or something like that. I took it back to the dealer about 2-weeks ago for the 1,000 mile service and found the front bearings we're loose.They tightened them but I can't see any difference. Now I have to take it in next week-end to replace the regulator, It's kinda like a recall thing. This my third Harley and I'v had good luck until now………. (2005 Dyna Super Glide, 2011 Heritage Classic and I thought I had to have a Roadking Classic) Hope this not to much griping at this time...

The front bearings were loose? So they re torqued the axle? HMMMM
 
I don't know if I'm doing this right But yes they had to tighten the front bearings. That was what they told me, They said it was under warranty. I thought that was the vibration which they new anything about, but it wasn't…..

Wheel bearings are sealed units. Other than tightening the axle nut did this help?

I guess that was what they did, They told me front wheel bearings I don't know enough about it to know. I couldn't tell any differents at all. I thought that was the vibration that was feeling at slowing down like at a red light…. Thanks for the HELP….
