Turns out one of my new rear tires was missing 10-15 psi. This is the second rear tire in three days to loose pressure. The other one was due to a bad/new valve stem.

I was noticing the body twist/torque in all gears whenever I tipped the throttle.

I pumped the tire back up and all is well (until it loses more air before I get it repaired).

When the other tire went low, I immediately knew what it was. But after having it happen once, I thought, "Nah, can't be another flattening tire...must be something wrong with my baby."

All is fine now. Thanx for the input.

Glad you figured it out and that it was a simple solution. "Body twist/torque" is a bit misleading a description. Steering to one side or the other with application and removal of throttle would have been more direct.
