I snugged down my steering head bearings, but now I get a clunk and see the head move when I apply the front brake near a stop (like pulling into the garage.) It didn't seem to do this before I snugged it down...
I can wiggle the front forks front to back. My question is how many eigth or quarter turns might the ring take (I tightened about 1/8 of a turn). I am concerned about over tightening the bearings. The 'ring' felt pretty tight when I was done, yet the front end still seems loose. Might it be that I need to really tighten the cap nut on top? How tight should that be? What exactly does it do?
Sounds like ramblin, I know....I attempted to decypher Snowbums article, but got lost....
Thanks,
