The high speed wobble is diminished/gone. could it be the geometry was off due to being soo jacked up in the rear?

From what I know a small change in the rake and trail of a bike can reflect bjg changes in the stability.

Dropping the rear a few inches would have a small effect on the rake and trail.

I allways blamed the tires for the wobble.

Rake effects trail, so raising the rear lowers trail and makes the bike easy to turn, but less stabil at high speed straight line. lowering the rear increares rake and trail and increases the sraight line stability, wile incresing the effort required to turn in on a corner.

Im going riding at Limestone NY Tommorow so i will get a chance to test it in a big way.
