Simi Shimmy/ Wobble - HELP pls

[JackOHJack]

Dear fellow riders,

 

Have you ever experienced shimmy/ wobble? If so, How to avoid/ fix?

 

Was going at 80 - 100 when my Yamaha X1R seems to turn slightly left by itself (0.5seconds) then turn slightly right by itself (0.5seconds)again before stabilising. (Diff from being swayed by wind type)

 

All the while my handlebar was straight (or so I think). The feeling is like my fork just turned by itself for a brief period. When it happened(s) there wasn't big gusts of winds as well.

 

I tot it could be "not-so-good" alignment since tires new and all. But then if it's the alignment then I should feel it all the while, prob is that it comes and go, sometimes have sometimes dun have.

 

Please share your experiences, thanks in advance!

 

PS: I have been able to go at 120 smoothly with it so it couldn't be "unable to control at high speed" as well?
