The steering mechanism can be taken apart for inspection and lubrication.

1.Remove the link to the transmission.

2.Remove the handlebar and control arm.

3.Unscrew the flange nut that holds the weldment onto the spacer and bearing.

4.Remove remaining hardware and slide weldment off.

Inspect spacers bearings and pivot points for wear. Repair or replace all worn parts. Lubricate with a high quality grease and reassemble.
