OMG - I always thought it was my dodgy riding or suspension setup but I just replaced the bearings and ST now goes around corners like it was on rails.
I think it must have been dead since I bought it. The doctor who owned it before me must have been a wheely merchant or have had a mild front end bash- as the head bearing had been gone for a while but noone (3x services + 2 MOTs) picked up on the wheel bearings being shot.
When I wiggled the bars at speed, I use to get a 'knock', I honest believed it was the head bearings but now I know better.

I guess the side stand scratching moment on the way to scarborough the other sunday pushed it over the edge. The LH unit turned itself into a mangled knot on a low speed roundabout on the way back.
