bike wobbles on stand up wheelie plz help

I just starting doing stand ups. when i reach the BP and ride for a couple seconds later my entire bike starts to wobble pretty bad and i am forced to put her down.

the more it wobbles i can feel it want to tank slap when i set her down...

how do i stop this from happening...

tire pressure is at 36lbs in the back.

bike is 03 1k

28-30 psi should be good.

i seen it before on the 1000's but it was only happening cause he had to much air in the tire and cause he was real loose with his legs way away from the tank
