Default Pain in the ***

Did an steering head bearing adjustment on my 2011 Road Glide on the weekend, followed the instructions in the service manual.....what a pain in the ***!!!!!!
If I ever have to do that again, it will be too soon.
After doing this, I would highly recommend NOT FOLLOWING THE SERVICE MANUAL.
The easy way to do in would be just removing the top fork brace (leaving the pinch bolts tight).


Good news is, I do not have the wobble on decal any more, and the swing is down to the spec'd 1.5, instead of the 6 changes in direction that it started with.
