Your axle bearings may or may not be bad. Try tightening your axle nut first, that could be your problem.

what year is it? some are different, I have a 2000, and you loosen the axle nut ( the big odd shaped thing next to the rotor) turn it counter clockwise. Make it hand tight, then tighten it maybe an 1/8 of a turn, then tighen the bolt on the axle nut. make sure it spins freely. Do this before you ride it or you will trash your bearings.
