Thumping vibration at speed when in a right hand sweeping turn

I'm getting a very fast thud thud thud thud from the front end when in a sweeping right hander at speed (Generally around 100km/h), when i go around a left hander it's either gone or barely there. I'm thinking its either the front left wheel Bearing or the left Front CV Joint.......

What do you think?

Sounds like your on the right track. But check the condition of the tired for bubbles, etc.

Normally the CV will make noise as slow speeds when turning and under power.
And normally failing wheel bearings just sound like loud tired at first.
That normal failure for most makes, failure symptoms can be different and unusual.
