Default handlebar jerkiness on old i180

My i180 has a twitch or jerkiness while going slow speed...snaps every few feet to left and back...so forward motion gets mostly self-corrected to continue straight on, bus still it is annoying. Less noticible at moderate speeds...but twitch returns at slow down to "fast walking " speeds.

Any suggestion on a DIY cleaning handle grip sensors or other approaches to this problem

Thanks ahead of time for ideas!

Sandy

Yes, my first thought was the polymer spline that is part of the drive system. I would check that first...

Good luck. Feel free to contact me directly, as I am not too far away.

I don't get to glide nearly as much as I used to, nor come here as often as I did, but I will gladly offer what little I know...
