Double check that neck bearing first, I've had to adjust mine twice in one riding season, saves you from chasing other things....

I had that too, but it was fixed with a neck bearing adjustment. This is a different sensation, this is more of a squirming feel.

I believe it was due to inflating the shocks to max height. I lowered the ride height to stock I didn't seem to have an issue.
