Default Wobbly steering '06 Street "Slide"

I've read a lot of posts about wobbly steering on Touring models. The difference between my problem and many of the others I've read is that my steering gets shaky when I start changing gears, it feels like I am trying to steer the bike on a road of grease and goes from side to side and feels like a StreetSlide. When I get it up to around 35+ mph it just does not feel like I have control of the motorcycle. I took it to an empty lot and practiced turns and it feels fine.

Anyone have this problem or any ideas on what's going on? It feels very unsafe at almost any speed. Thanks for any help.

I'm a little concerned he couldn't make that decision on his own[sm=goodidea.gif]
