Wheelie wobble at BP

What's up guys. I started learning how to wheelie last summer, just recently getting comfortable with BP. I'm having 2 issues that are getting kinda frustrating. The first one is trying to steer while in a wheelie. I know most roads are banked to the right for drainage so the bike natrauly wants to drift right. Can't figure out how to counter that. The second issue is the bike wobbling or walking side to side just as I'm getting to BP, sometimes worse then others. Any advice on fixing either of these issues would be appreciated!

Stop chopping the throttle. You want to be as smooth as possible. Are you using brake? That's a good way to even things out, just be careful not to get fade.

Your 100% right, I was chopping the throttle. Still trying to get the hang of the back brake. How did you get the feel for the back brake?

Squared of rear tire can cause wobble as well especially if you've got it at stock psi or close to it.
