when you mean side to side do you mean turning the bars left or right or actually side to side??? it could be a few things, tie rod ends are bad, your upper steering stem bushing is bad or the lower bearing is bad, also check your bar clamps in case they came loose

Very common for Tie Rod ends to come loose at the stem.
