ummmm.... when the forks are off and the triples are empty is the perfect time to assess. Moves smoothly and freely, without notches,...
Fuel Tube o-rings were at imminent failure. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
How do the steering head bearings feel? ;-)
Drill size slightly larger than M8 threads. The bolt head will pop off way before the bit gets anywhere near something important.
