If this head shake happens at 20mph +/-5 then it is typical and will disappear above. simply hold on both hands.
If it appears at higher speed, then there is something wrong.
Starting point to check are the head bearings if they have a "nest" then you ought to change them. Or other loose or wobbling parts like axle, bearings, head bearings.
in any case a friction disc or gas stearing damper should get rid of the shaking.

Could be any of a dozen things to check. It may or may not have anything to do with taking off the sidecar, but that's a good place to start. Check all the mounting bolts for tightness. Check the frame mounting brackets to see if anything has changed position. Check the sub-frame attachment. Steering head bearings, swing arm bearings, tire pressure, tire wear after riding 2 wheels,and all the usual alignment issues. It's bound to be something so obvious that that you overlooked it.
