sounds like your forks are low on fluid or slightly bent or steering bearing is loose

--Can't really give you an answer without seeing your bike.
--Check the F wheel bearings - hold the handle bars full L or R against the steering stop. Try to wiggle the wheel sideways.
--Check for loose spokes.
--Check the speedometer drive (on the F wheel).
--Check the steering bearings. They could be loose. With the bike on the side stand, jack up the front of the bike to get the F wheel off the ground. Try to pull the wheel away from the bike (and push it towards the bike).
--Last thing would be to dis-assemble the forks and check for any worn parts.

The front axle could be loose allowing the front brake assembly to click.
