Put your bike on the center stand. Make sure the lug bolts are tight and check for any play in the aft drive train. An inch or two of rotational play is normal.

Sounds like your pivot bearings might be going. Time to pull things apart and inspect them.

The lug bolts are under the plastic cover on the rear wheel.
