I guess you could replace the stock one with an Ohlins, unless you prefer another brand.

I’ve had mine up at high speeds on crappy NJ roads and never felt any wobble with the stock stabilizer. You don’t like that factory one?

Usually your two options are Ohlins or GPR Stabilizers.
As far as form, never death grip the bars. This exasperates the loose condition of the steering on naked bikes. Some movement is to be expected but I've found that the bike corrects itself fairly quickly and the best thing is to not react at all. Have a loose hold on the bars to allow the bars to move slightly within your grip and straighten itself out. If that makes sense the best I can describe over text.

Personaly never had an issue on my 2017 stock stabilizer. Have you had them check it to make sure it's functioning correctly? It is electronic speed sensitive. That and tire condition/pressure.

My bike is rock solid up to 135 or so. Check everything, including torque on both axles, pinch bolts, wheel weights, triple tree nut, steering damper, tire condition/pressures, etc. You could provide more specifics, to better relate what exactly are you talking about, including road conditions, speeds, riding position, modifications on your bike, etc. These bikes don't have any such issues stock, so probably something you added, or a mechanical issue (loose fastener, etc). Or crazy fast speeds I haven't tried yet .

Forgot a very important check: rear axle/chain alignment. If not aligned properly, a high-speed wobble is exactly the result. Good luck.

It doesn’t have a strut stabilizer? It’s a 2019 with standard triple tree set up.... am I confused?

Yeah I didn’t even think to look there. But, maybe i need to stiffen it? Or tune it to my weight? 6’0 I’m 235lbs It doesn’t have a strut stabilizer? It’s a 2019 with standard triple tree set up.... am I confused? You can feel it through varying speeds.

I just looked, I don't see any kind of manual adjustment at all. It is electronic and speed sensitive, as others have stated. I'm 6'3 and 245, I don't have any wobble issues yet, my fastest speed so far is 140

Figured I would chime in as well I'm 6 foot 238 and think I know what wobble your talking about. I personally was just holding on too tight. You can hit 100 plus and literally feel the difference. Tighten up front wheel gets squirrely relax and it works itself out and pretty damn smooth.
It's just not a crotch rocket bro is the best way to think about it. For me anyways that made a lot of difference and getting the suspension set. Gotta a 2019 myself so..

I've not had any wobble at high speeds in the three years I've had the bike and I'm on my third set of tires so plenty of time for things to be misaligned, misbalanced or put out of spec. I find it very stable. As others have said, don't grip too tight and relax your shoulder and arm muscles....let the bike work for you, not vice versa.

Yeah I suppose, I came from the R6 world. Owned two. All I’ve ever ridden. So I suppose it’s my style. Thanks for mentioning that you guys! I suppose I need to switch my technique up a bit! This is my first Naked bike. I've not had any wobble at high speeds in the three years I've had the bike and I'm on my third set of tires so plenty of time for things to be misaligned, misbalanced or put out of spec.

Have you had the suspension adjusted by a shop for your weight? I have done it for every bike I own and they feel like totally different motorcycles after

In all seriousness get that suspension set for your weight. Pipes and flashes etc are great but suspension,imo, is the #1 best thing you can do. And it's fairly cheap.
If your XL like some of us yeah its gonna take some aftermarket goodies to make it really good but even stock stuff can be manipulated to work really decent for the average person. But I'm also a novice so....
Do have have that track day fund started though!! Wife hates it hahahaha
