Thanks heaps guys. Yes Ace, im starting to think it could have something to do with the roo incident too...i phoned a few bike mechanics yesterday, but no one is willing to try fix it, just advice is all they can offer...
i have put on the new chain tensioners to replace the old cam adjusters.
Keep in mind that new brake pads , sprocket and chain were replaced before a 2000km trip in the Aussie alps, meaning heaps of braking with a massive load, probably about 400kg including 2 people and gear.
Im pretty sure ive not missed a single washer etc on the wheel assembly but ill double check with the break down diagram. THanks again JVS for that, saves me digging that up from the parts manual! i spose i should print it off and put it in a plastic folder as im no doubt going to need it again and again!
so im about to get in there again, but what am i going to do different this time?
not sure to be honest. ill grease stuff, clean stuff and check the wheel bearing this time and the spongy things (part 2) in the wheel. i think a few of them are stuffed. I just wanna try find anything causing movement.
The real problem for me with this , is ive lost confidence. im not riding properly and have been a little scared each time i hop on. i need good brakes to be able to ride well.
