First check the neck bearing nut. torque to 40 lbs. If it is to loose you will get wobble.

Check your tire air pressures first.
18-20 psi rear and 36 psi front.
Your C-50 only weighs a little over 800 lbs.
Then take it for a ride.
In a C-50 some headshake is normal, usually below 20mph.
High speed shake (55-65mph) is usually wheel balance.
Since you have 2 wheels on the back, twice the odds one of them is out of balance.
Another suggestion to make it easier for you and others is to continue posting in the same thread you started originally so that all of the solutions and homework is in one place.
