    Very little swing arm flex with the "built-up box section aluminum swing arm" on the '82 11E (the quotes are from the July '82 Cycle World review). And no high speed wobble (it's not one of the old Kawasaki 'Widow Makers').

    I've never had mine over 120 mph, but even there she plays 'look Ma, no hands!' with no complaints.
