    Back to the fork slider bushes, I cant recall which manual it was, but either the manual I had for the 750EF or 1150 said the bushes should be replaced any time the forks were separated.
    Current:
    Z1300A5 Locomotive (swapped my Intruder for it), GS450 Cafe Project (might never finish it....), XT500 Commuter (I know - it's a Yamaha )

    Past:
    VL1500 Intruder (swapped for Z1300), ZX9R Streetfighter (lets face it - too fast....), 1984 GSX750EF, 1984 GSX1100EF (AKA GS1150)
    And a bunch of other crap Yamahas....

      Loose/bad steering head bearing issues with steering head shake usually occurs when decelerating with no hands on the bars between 35-40 mph.
