Fall Away Test
Hi all, I have a 2014 Street Bob and I'm performing a fall away test to check the steering head bearings. Per the HD service manual, it tells you to, " Loosen, but do not remove the two fasteners at the rear
of the upper headlight nacelle. This will allow the upper
nacelle to float loosely."
Does someone know what they're referring to here? I see one shielded bunch of electrical wires coming out of the back of the headlight surround and those can't be removed at the headlight. Other than those there is just the bolt that holds it to the lower fork clamp. They don't mean to loosen the bolts on the fork clamp, do they?

How important is it that the fall away gap is centered? If I have 3" to fall on one side and .5" to fall on the other, that meets the gap size, and the service manual makes no mention of centeredness, but that just doesn't seem intuitively right.
