Wobbly front end

(1/3) > >>

brianm:
I have a 1978 CB750 F2 and the front end feels wobbly when riding along. I have checked the steering race for play, the wheel bearings, changed the fork oil. I did find one of the bottom fork yokes loose so I tightened it up and thought that would have solved the problem but it is still there.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Spin the front wheel and take a close look at it.

I stored my 500/4 in a hot garage all summer on the sidestand. The front tyre is now warped and makes the bars wobble.

brianm:
it's got new tyres on it. The front one was badly fitted but its now ok!

When I first put my 500/4 together it had a wobbly front end.  After hours of messing about it turned out to be simply that the top yoke was not sitting correctly in position.  I loosened all of the clamps and gave it a tap all round with a leather mallet, tightened everything back up.  After that it was completely cured.

brianm:
I'll give that a try.
