Default gettin shaky at higher speeds

I just bought my first bike ever three months ago. 06 CBR 600 RR. I notice after a couple months right around the 157MPH range it will start to wobble. Is that normal? and would something as simple as taking off the reflectors on the fork have anything to do with that? Thanks

No reflectors nothing to do with this. Yes , it is normal at 157 ! If you don“t like the wobble , just buy a Scott steer damper and that“s all.

Take care

Fastest I've been so far on my 3 week old bike is 100. It runs so nice I didn't even know I was going that fast! I need to be careful.
