Help with front end wobble

[Anonymous]

Im sure this has been answered thousands of times b4 but whats going on? When I let off the throttle on my GS1100 the handlebars give a short lived shimmy or shake. It also seems to happen during acceleration for a second. What is it? :?

Check the air pressure of course, examine the tire wear--cupping?, Check the steering head bearings

1= tire air presure low
2= fork preload/presure low or uneven between the forks
3= steering stem bearings loose or to tight
4= wheel bearings loose
5= a tripple tree bolt, or two loose
6= alignment between front and rear wheel
7= possible tweaked frame (a strech at best)
8= tire ballance
9= bad tire belt
10= alignment of the forks in the tripple trees
