Welcome to the forum!

Post up in the 1000F section for more views & help w/ your bike's issue. You should get the help you need in that section.

welcome to the forum.

+1, the 1000f section will point you in the right direction. check the obvious stuff... make sure the tire is in good condition and not rotted or separating and make sure the axle it torqued properly. i dont think its a head bearing issue....but who knows

Yep! The 1kF section is like a forum inside a forum, and the saloon in the 1kF area is a different matter. Be very careful in there, they tend to hurt my feelings in there...NOT! <-the saloon that is...
