Guest StillwaterVFR Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hello All- After an exciting dance with a BMW coupe and a Mustang Cobra (see TEENAGE TEXTER TAKES ME, MY RC36, ....), my bike has been mostly put back together. There was right-side damage after grazing the side of the Mustang as it was in a 180-degree spin in a head-on crash with the BMW. Anyway, the front seems straight and the bike rides well. BUT there is a small clunk occasionally on certain bumps that is felt through the bars. What are your thoughts about steering head bearings, triple-clamps, steering-head adjusters,etc ? Thanks.
