206L question

Been flying a 206L around this summer and it's the first time I've ever gotten any real time in a Bell product. Noticed something it tends to do in flight that I don't ever remember hearing about, so not sure if it's just a given or if it means somethings maybe wrong with the machine.

I'll be in level cruise all fat dumb and happy with a good load of pax on. For no apparent reason the fuselage will sort of lurch forward once or twice in a few seconds, like it's being pushed from behind. Never does this with a light load though, only when heavy.

Not sure if it's just an odd reaction to a little turbulence, if maybe a tranny mount is a little sloppy (checks out fine on pre and post flight DI's). Any ideas?

Maybe I picked a bad week to stop sniffing glue.
