Hello All,
I am in the process of repairing a 1995 GL1500i that was in an accident. I'm currently working on the front end, and addressing a handlebar/tire alignment issue.
I have removed the forks (gonna have Progressives installed), and have noticed the upper tree and lower tree are not quite in alignment. The upper tree is in alignment with the handlebars, and the lower with the tire.
My question is (I have never had to disassembled a tree before) is the upper tree adjustable to align with the lower? Is there a "key" on the stem that the upper tree slides onto (thus self aligning)? As far as I can tell, the trees do not exhibit any evidence of being bent
Any advice or comments are welcome and appreciated. TIA
