Loosen both the left and right pinch bolts.
Loosen the steering stem bolt. You don’t need to remove the
handlebars to do this.
Use a spanner to either tighten or loosen the steering stem
adjustor nut. You’ll want to tighten it if the steering stem
bearings are too loose (as indicated by free play or clicking
when moving the forks back and forth).
If the forks have too much resistance when turning them
from left to right (and vice versa), you’ll want to loosen the
steering stem adjustor nut.
After making the adjustment, tighten the steering stem bolt to 50 ft-lbs. Check the front end of the
motorcycle again to make sure the adjustment provides no clicking or movement of the forks when
pulling the forks back and forth, and that the steering is not restricted when turning the front end from
side to side. When you are satisfied with the adjustment, tighten the upper triple tree pinch bolts.
