So my buddy has been able to do some high speed runs and says there is no more high speed wobble.

What did he end up doing to solve the issue?
Also, did it have a slow speed wobble? (Hands off, decelerating to a stop?) If so, is that cured as well?
If the government gives you everything you want,
it can take everything you have.

Replaced rear swing arm bushings with aftermarket.

Good to know, thanks for that info.
You had mentioned the force needed line up the bushings with the tranny, did you do anything about that, or just assemble and go? No new tires?
Glad he's back safely on the road.

No, we did nothing about the force needed to line the transmission up to the rear swing arm pivot bolt.  We thought about breaking loose the motor mounts to relieve that unsprung pressure, but decided not to potentially open a bigger can of worms.
