Have just had a busy weekend
Have changed front and rear wheel bearings. Steering head bearings and done the fork oil change.
I was going to picture the whole process but to be honest the workshop manual is first class and the best £60 you can spend on it if you are going to do this stuff yourself.
Yes it can be a bit daunting but absolutley superb when you take it for a test ride and its is spot on :D
The job itself went very smoothly and I did not encounter any problems

Enjoy


Mark

Cool but it might be worthwhile doing your swingarm bearings as well.
I just done my swingarm and wheel bearings.
