An inexpensive atv jack from Northern can be very handy, and very stable because of its wide flat surface. It will also come in handy when you have to drop the motor for stator, timing chain, water pump, and like repairs that are inside the rear motor cover.
GL500i steering bearings
Noticed a definite front wheel wobble at low speeds, especially with no hands on the bars.
Read some posts about bearings, but had some real basic questions before I start.
1) is it worth just trying to tighten them first and see how it goes? Or should I just replace with a tapered set?
2) is there a full step by step on replacing them anywhere? Do I need any special tools?
3) any ideas on jacking front wheel up without a jack? Don't currently own a jack, but will get one if it's the best way to get the wheel off.
Thanks in advance
(I like pics, so figured others might enjoy thos one)
