Realize this is a old post. I have a 1200 voyager that did the same thing. I raised the tire pressure about 5 psi and the problem went away and did not return.

Jack the front end up and spin the wheel, with a chalkmark on the tire you can see if the weight is at one point..also is there any play in the steering head bearings maybe they just need tightening.

Out for a ride (2x) this week, noticed a new issue. Locked the throttle to do up my jacket, at about 60 mph; when I let go out the bars, went into a severe front end wobble: this is a new issue. I know, shouldn't let go of the bars, not safe or wise, but my Drifter has always been rock solid, have always been able to do this with no issue. Wheel weights are still on the spokes, tire pressure good, tire tread good, no cupping, steering neck bearings feel smooth. Any pressure on the handle bares stops the wobble; can't feel any vibration whatsoever with even light pressure on the bars.

Any suggestions?
