Well, I'm having trouble with my front forks on my track bike that I built after my crash. When I lowsided it, the front wheel was pointing off to the left. I followed some advice Jet City Racer gave me and loosened the axle pinch bolts on the left side and the pinch bolts on the lower left triple. I held the front brake and bounced the forks and did some manual manipulating and it straightened up. I torqued all the bolts back to specs.
I just took it out for a spin around the neighborhood and for the hell of it before I left I held the front brake and compressed the fork a few times. When I rode off, I could tell my front wheel was pointing left again. I know it was straight the first time I rode it. Nothing looks bent and the bolts are tight. What is happening? No track day for me until this gets fixed.
Thanks!
