Hi all,
i have a 2005 zx10r with 10,000 miles on the clock.
I have just replaced the stock head bearings with some taper roller bearings as the original ones were damaged.
Can anyone recommend a torque setting for these, i currently have them at 30nm but seem to still get short sharp vibes on the front end when travelling over small bumps at lower speeds.
Steering is smooth to turn and requires minimal effort, no obvious play is evident when the fronts lifted. i am heavy at around 115kg, i have 4 lines showing on the pre-load adjusters 7 click's out on compression with around 35mm sag(inc rider). and 33psi on the front tyre.
suspension is smooth when in motion, maybe a little stiction at the top of the travel.
the front brakes do drag a little meaning the wheel isn't that free to spin.
Does anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks
Dan
