thanks for the reply, well, that's what i tought, is it worth changing myself or should i see the dealer? i changed the triple clamp and bearings on my 640 adventure before, but then i knew the problem... jumped over a car with the 640, head first , luckily just a brused wrist and a twisted triple clamp on the ktm, but now? no reason for the steering go bust? well see. thanks agais
