Default loud vibrating from steering column??

Hey guys,

got a bit of a problem, when I boot it in first my bugeyes steering shakes and makes a loud vibrating noise ! Very unnerving as I thought it was detting at first.
It also does it slightly in 2nd and even less in 3rd.

Any ideas what this could be? Loose steering rack or something?

Thanks in advance
