Assuming none of the above-mentioned mechanical difficulties are present you may simply have a case of head shake which can be caused by certain aggressive tire tread patterns. In my case it was solved by the addition of a damper which was a big help in other ways also

Check your rear axel. You could have a out of balance tire too. On vehicles you pick up a vibration at higher speeds and if not corrected soon you could have eggs for tires.
