Default Head Shake

Hi everyone, just bought a 1999 CBR1000 to supplement my Fireblade and give me something to tour on.

Really love it, but have a slight problem in that between 35 - 50 mph the head/handlebars shake like a bitch if I take my hands off, or l Ioosen my grip on the handlebars, but it doesn't do it at any other speed.

Bike has less than 10,000 miles on it and has just passed an MOT, any ideas?

Worn Front tire, trashed from head bearings... etc
