u require a big spanner to remove the big nut juz below the handle bar...

can't remember whether u needa lift up the handlebar anot...

then u need another spanner to tighten the steering cone ...

becareful not to scratch the oil tank in the process.. best to remove it..

nah pass it over to the bike shop to do it lah!!

steering cone is some bearing thingamajig in your triple tree. If you ride and when the front tire crosses the hump, it makes some knocking sounds.. then it might be the steering cone...

 

it costs about 150+ for my bike... the best is to check with your mechanic...

 

but the changing is quite painful tho.. cos a lot of hard knocking... :)

s4 steering cone think cost ard $80.

 

If you move the handle bar from full left to fully right...

and the handle experience a 'stop' somewhere in the middle... meaning need to change steering cone liao.

will feel tat e bar actually will have a 'tac' feeling when turing towards centre(straight).

 

-result: wobble, unstable coners.

 

u can go shop & get them to 'tighten' e cone, after tat feeling will be like bar is difficult to turn ard. have to kup more instead of turing bar when turning. reason: steering cone is like a wheel beaing. circle shape with small balls balls in it. e ball spoil result in a damaged steering cone.

u tighten it, meaning it's NO longer in a circle shape. will have a feeling like puting a damper & adjusting to its full tightest.

but it's a 'temp' solution.

 

i did mine at Bt. Merah Untiy SGD$90.00 original S4 steering cone.

=D

LEAF departure is B`cos of WIND pursit or TREE didn't ask her to stay?
