hi peeps

i am now starting to remedy th elist of faults produced during my '89 XJ600s' MOT,

the mudguard has now been secured with a custom bracket fabricated to hold it in place,

fork seals have arrived, waiting to be changed.

now the headstock bearings, they arent notchy but they need adjusting... how do i get to them to adjust them? i can see one of the nuts on the top of the headstock but i cannot get to the locknut which (i assume) is on top of it under a small plastic fairing between the handlebars which i cannot see a way of removing.

help?

Well howdy Foamy !!!

hows the army ?

When tightening up the headstock bearing,,,,,,,tighten until it is tight then undo it by about 1/4 or maby 1/2 turn,,,,,check that the bars can turn freely in both directions without the need to push them arround with any force. Check them a few times before ya put everything back to geather.

HTH.
