Loose Nuts

Not joking, could be.

Check all fastenings on bars and bar end weights.

Then yoke, fork brace and wishbone business.

Then wheel spindle etc - haven't you changed wheels lately? Best check calipers and discs for warpage as well.

Are tyres knobbly, or worn road bias? Are you used to 200 miles on knobblies (think you are)

Just check for tightness, don't start tightening willy nilly.

See how you get on.

I have found in the past that when stiffening up the rear suspension to carry luggage, then forgetting to re-adjust after removing said luggage, vibrations are felt through the bars. Have you altered the rear suspension recently?
