Be careful..
I took a reaming from the GSXr forum guys.

they say you should get a spring scale and measure the force apply-able to the bars before they move after making the adjustment. Also after tightening everything back down too.

I'm pretty sure I have it down though, done this a few times myself. Not so sure how much I trust a spring scale over a cheap digital fishing scale or something from walmart either.

Luckily the Ninjette is known to be a bit less prone to tank slappers also so you'll be ok dabbling in your own stem nut tension.

I'm finally fixing Adrian's tomorrow. I told him to stop riding so he went out and got leathers and now he's riding it faster. I have to go fix it before he gets himself killed from a tight stem nut.
Can't say I didn't warn him five times though. I guess I'm heading over there tomorrow.
Can't bear to know he's riding it around like that still. =P

It would be driving me crazy if it were my bike.
