Check your neck berrings --- they could need to be tighten up.

that is probably the correct fix. I've had people come in and say that they have a wobble when they pull their bikes out after winter. They do everything else but forget to check the tire air pressure. They have come in with as low as 6-7 psi. They were lucky to make it in I say. While you are at it check to make sure you haven't got any bad cupping due to under inflation. Hope that helps and Get Ridin'.

I would check the things you changed over the winter; alignment would be the place to start.

The bags have to weigh even. The tire alignment also can cause this. I have the same problem from time to time. Usually its an uneven weight in the bags, or the tire alignment. This being said after you checked the above mentioned stuff. Good Luck
