Default vibration at high speed

So the weather was nice yesterday and I went for a ride before the game. I took a route that happened to have long straightaways and I got the bike up to a conservative 95MPH. Once I got to that speed I felt a very noticeable vibration so I backed off the throttle. I've never noticed this vibration before, mainly because I've never taken the bike that fast before. Could this be a hint that something, perhaps my wheels or forks, are bent? Any help is appreciated.

My bike had a shimmy in the front end, couldn't figure it out for nothing! Changed my tires and presto! it was gone. My tire wasn't that worn out either. The only thing i could think of is that it had worn funny causing it to shake. Might try a new tire or getting your old one rebalanced.

Hmm.. mine is pretty stable at 150. I just get scarred that the front wheel is gonna fly off or the back wheel will come loose.
