    Steering Head Bearings - Decapitated?

    I have an increasingly worsening condition on my bike; the steering is starting to bind when I turn the handlebars, like it is catching on something. It is 'kicking' while coming out of low-speed corners (interesting! 8O ) and when turning the bars side to side, it feels like there is an obstruction. Since I don't see an obstruction, my only other guess is steering head bearings?

        depending on the year of your bike it may have ball brgs Replace them with tapered roller brgs. Spend an afternoon and replace the steering stem brgs
