they do that , on gt/gts the answer is heavier bar end weights ,on motorbikes you up the pre-load on rear shock to load front end more .do you sit far back on the seat "scooterboy" style like me .it leaves the front real light an more prone to headshakeing . there is a simpler solution tho , stop taking your hands off the bars .

Nah I don't sit far back but I have to stick my arm out to turn right/left (no indicators) and with one hand on the bars its must look like I'm having a fit. Using my leg just looks weird.But thanks for the suggestion.

today changed front wheel checked hub nut and front shock bolts tight and there doesn't seem any play on the forks but handle bars still shake badly when slowing down.Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Have you got anything moving around in your glovebox a lot? Like oil or tool roll? Or are you using your front brake and it's dragging/binding slightly? These would give the illusion that it's wobbling... How old is your tyre? Might have a flat spot or its bulging? Only guesses mind... 😁
