I am not sure how old your bike is or how many miles it has done, so here are a few suggestions to look at.
Check the rear wheel alignment, meaning the chain adjusters are equal.
Are the steering head bearings ok & adjust correctly not to tight or to loose.
What make of tyres are you running & what are their sizes, what is the tyre pressures set at.
What is your rear spring set to, which notch & what is your approx weight.
Also check the swinging arm bearings for play.
Check the front & rear wheel bearings for free play.

Hi Kev
the tyres are michelin pilots front 120/70/zr17 psi stated on the tyre is 42 it had 35psi in it.The rear is a pilot aswell 160/60/zr 17 42psi stated on the tyre this has 39psi in it,both tyres are spanking new and still have the bobbly bits on.
All bearings seem fine theres no play in any of them and the rear wheel is level as it should be.im about a mans 15st,and i forgot to check the rear spring.When i was riding home from work this morning it was very windy which makes the wobble effect worse its like the steering has no resistance you can turn it with a finger.I presume centraliseing the front wheel is going to mean tyre of and loosening the spokes while on the spindel.
