Hopefully someone may have had experience with this in the past, I had picked up an XS400 last summer, and Ive been fixing it slowly throughout the year and I've now come to this as it's pretty well all in working condition , those issues that have not been fixed have parts in the mail, otherwise an electrical issue
anyways to the point here
When I'm riding I pretty well have to rely on swaying the bike by leaning to have it steer properly for the actual steering of the handle bars is so stiff and heavy feeling, it feels like I'm driving on an empty tire almost.
I have come to the conclusion that this is most likely the steering head bearings and I'm hoping to pull them apart and pack them with grease.
Does anyone on here have any previous experience with this?
Also does anyone else have an idea what this could be caused by if it doesnt seem like the steering head bearings to you??
