A wobble. The spindle is running out! (out of round). Depending on how the spidle is designed it almost has to be a bearing.
Did the lathe come with an assembly drawing and parts list?
Thanks for the replies upfront....No diorama was included with packaging. Could access Parts and configuration last month @ Rikon site but cannot access at present, wouldn't you know? Is it difficult to replace bearings? Calling Rikon would likely be next step?
If you can get the bearing out easily, look for a number on it. It can be matched up.
