I think "They all do that Sir", may be the appropriate response here. I have noticed several mentions of steering dampers on this site, maybe that's the answer. I have noticed its worse on bumpy roads, try moving your weight forward during hard acceleration.....or slow down...No? oh well maybe time to start saving!

I found a bit of wobble but that went as soon as I put Michelin PR4's on.
I found they made a massive difference round corners as well, compared to the factory rubber which I found very nervous by comparison.
You may want to stiffen your suspension a bit too.

never had that problem on any bike
If your accelerating hard enough, the front wheels off the ground, so no shake. Go faster !!!
Sometimes they shake their head over 110-120 but that is easily cured
I found mine only started to do it after I put the hand guards back on for the winter, also there is a lot more wind noise with them on. I will be taking them back of at the weekend !

If you want a massive wobble/weave fit Bridgestone BT023's! On the plus side they last for ages (6000 miles!)
steve, we will be banging it around snetterton on the 14th of november, rain or shine so if you want a go on it ? not been round the new part so should be fun.
Not had that on mine
