Sounds to me that your steering head bolt is loose. Straighten out your
wheel and retighten it, but be real careful about the torque spec, you
don't want to overtighten it and crush your head bearings, that would
not be a good thing!

| I seem to notice some flexing or twisting from side to side on the front end of my Eldo. If I hold the tire between my legs and grab the handlebars, I can move the "alignment" without too much trouble. I noticed this after a ride today in which my handlebars were not in exact alignment with my front tire. I stopped and fixed it, but don't think it should have been that easy. Where should I start to look for problems? Could this be in the steering head bearings?
