front end shake gone

[kilrcalikawi]

I finally got around to tightening up the steering head bearings on my bike, while I was at it I loosened up all of the bolts that hold the fork tubes in place and pushed the tubes down flush with top clamp. I also tightened up my front axle bolt, thankfully it really didn't need it. Anyway, the results are no more shake at high speeds- much much much better. Cornering feels much more stable, my bike always felt like the front end wanted to jump out from underneath me when I was going around a corner, now it feels solid. Thanks for the good advice once again! Trev A16

The end of the exhaust is rather sooty,I put it down to a dirty air filter but cleaning it has made no difference.There is no smoke and fuel mileage is good.Any thoughts? Tony B1 Dorset UK
