liquidcooled Posted May 26, 2004 Posted May 26, 2004 when i take my hands off the bars the wheel judders a bit, i'm thinking steering head bearings, could it be this? tyres are fine so cant be that :?
Admin Alex Posted May 26, 2004 Admin Posted May 26, 2004 Should do it on breaking as well if its the steering head
Moderator YamaHead Posted May 26, 2004 Moderator Posted May 26, 2004 Are you referring to your XJ there Alan?......'Cause I thought you had this prob sorted with your RD :? Either way mate, don't skimp & get Tapered Roller Bearings put in that Headstock......You won't regret it! :wink:
liquidcooled Posted May 26, 2004 Author Posted May 26, 2004 yeah it's the xj scott. the rd got a set of tapered bearings in it, what an improvement, silky smooth 8) not sure what the xj has in it, hopefully just need adjusting.
Moderator YamaHead Posted May 26, 2004 Moderator Posted May 26, 2004 I put Tapered Rollers in my old XJ 550 Seca.......with Killer Results 8) Maybe just Repack 'em with fresh grease & an adjust will do the trick? :wink:
mozzy Posted May 27, 2004 Posted May 27, 2004 if that dont work find a garage with a motorbike wheel balancer
liquidcooled Posted May 27, 2004 Author Posted May 27, 2004 yeah mozzy i was thinking the same thing mate, i'll try the steering bearings, if that fails i'll see if the wheel's balanced properly :wink:
