Steering feeling strange?????????????

Got my Mille r on Saturday and after a few miles i think i have a problem with the steering. The symptoms are the front end seems to weave as though the front wheel bearings are gone can also feel a clunking though the bars over bumps. Had the wheel off tonite and the bearings seem fine bolted it back together and torqued all the nuts on the front end to the correct settings. If i sit on the bike and grip the bars there seems to be about 2mm of play from side to side on the bars im thinking now that the headstock bearings are not tight enough. I have a recipt to say that the bearings where done about 800 miles ago in June maybe the guy doing them didnt tighten them correctly?? Also one of the discs is really loose on the bobbins the other side is moving but nowhere near as much could this be having an effect on the steering??? It seems to brake fine no woobles. Thanks in advance for any help.
 
There does feel like a little play there to be honest is there any guides any where to check them??????
 
If there is any play then that needs to be corrected either by resetting the steering bearing or if they feel notchy or want torque to their correct settings then you may need to replacing them , as far as the disc's goes that will need to have the carryer buttons cleaned & turned till they are free moving might as well do both while ya at it
