Headstock tighten
Hey guys, is it easy to tighten the headstock?, i got a caution on my M.O.T, and now it's a few months after i can hear a tiny knock when i go over bumps.

Re: Headstock tighten
as long as you can get the front of the bike off the ground, its easy.
you need the front off the ground so you can see that the bars can move free enough.
you need a 41 socket, i think
