My head bearing is not smooth, has kind of a notchy feeling. I assume
it needs to be replaced. I want to tackle it myself but I like to work
from some info/ experience/ drawings etc, so I dont screw anything up
when I dig into it. I have the shop manual and Guzziology and the Tips
book from MGNOC but they dont give much detail about the front end. I
did see in the Tips book, a diagram of a tool to pull the fork tubes
back up during re-assembly. I'm going to make one of those.
Is there a exploded veiw or a diagram of the front end anywhere on the
web scanned in? I especailly want to know where the seals are so I dont
damage them.
Any tips or suggestions how to get the bearings off and then new pressed
on?
Thanks a lot
