Hello Pete,
Deceleration wobble, has always happened to me (on other bikes, never the Ws) when my tires were worn, or front air pressure was incorrect. Worn steering head bearings could be the culpret as well.

Hello everyone, just got my W650 a few weeks ago and a couple of issues
have arisen. probably been dealt with before but who knows.
Handlebar Shake: when throttling back from 50+ or so mph, the
handlebars give a wobble/shake at between 45-50mph, ok if you've got
both hand on the handlebars, but if for some reason you don't, there is
a noticeable shimmy until the speed drops to 40-45mph. Thought it mught
have been down to a worn (very) rear tyre, but a new one has made no
difference.
Momentary cough: sometimes, the engine gives a 'cough'. It alwaqys
recovers instantly and then won't happen again for the rest of the ride.
Any suggestions for these issues, or are they all like it?
Thanks
Pete
