  the long stem that swivels the forks in the frame,it should be be almost a gentle fit,defo not loose,but to tight makes the steering iffy

El__burro:
so, remove the top joke and loosen the bolt (no 6 in the image)?

Thanks

hairygit:
No need to disturb the top yoke, get a C spanner (similar to the one for adjusting the rear shocks) and it can be accessed, or you may be able to tap it round with a punch.

Trigger:
Are you sure it is the head bearings ? If you have done it café style by lowering the front end and longer shocks on the rear, you have altered the rake and it will wobble in a bend and at high speed.

Bryanj:
You do not need to remove the yoke but you do need to loosen the top nut and the two pinch bolts on the yoke at the forks to allow everything to move easy
