I had a bike that I could not keep from shimmying at speeds over 32mph.
I had one that would always wobble at 35mph but clamping the top tube with my knees would always cure it.
I had one that sometimes would wobble and sometimes not. Knee on the tt or locking my elbows to my side would cure it.
None of the 9 bikes in my stable now wobble--period.
Some of my wobblers didn't wobble for other riders and some did. I tried different wheels on the worst wobbler of the bunch and it no longer wobbled at 32mph but at 35 mph it did.
There seem to be many factors that affect whether or not a bike will wobble including rider size, weight, position, and technique. I think my worst wobblers had forks too flexy for me at 200-215lbs.
The one that might/might not wobble was a fairly flexible ti frame.
