Clumsy oaf.

There's very little forward angle on a BBird's left leg. I had mine
pop off the stand on a very gentle downhill gradient when the shock
uncompressed.

I can confirm they're surprisingly heavy when you throw yourself under
them to save the fairing / paintwork ...

Well I just spent two hours fine tuning the steering head adjustment on
the CB72 only to finally notice that the knocking movement was coming
from the brake hub that wasn't fastened securely to the lower fork legs
as it should be.

D'oh. A one minute fixing of a slightly longer bolt fixed all and now
it's all ready for a test ride and maybe MOT.
