VERY SLIGHT low speed wobble

[BudMan]

While at INZane I had Big BF install a set of his 6" pull backs on my '99 IS.  First off, I LOVE 'em! I can stretch back and really relax on long rides.
He told me my head joint is too loose.  He could tell when he put it up on the lift to do the pull backs that it just "flopped over way too easily".  I have begun to feel a slight wobble at very low speeds (starting off in a turn from a full stop usually).  The wobble is gone by the time I reach normal walking speed.  She is rock solid at all other speeds and handles "hands off" with no problems.
I have looked at the procedure for adjusting the lock nut on the bearings and have a question: can I just remove the bars, faring, upper pinch bolts and triple clamp to get to the adjustment nut, or is there a lot more that has to be released?
I'm thinking I can make the adjustment without disturbing anything below the upper clamp.  Will this work?
Does anyone have any other ideas to check for the wobble?  It's so minor, I almost don't want to fool with it, but it's there now and it wasn't in the past.

I have a Tourer and tightened mine. Didn't remove the bars. Cover the tank and remove the deco nut and loosen the top triple tree. Raise up and drop back onto the tank and that exposes the stem fitting. You need a special tool for the fitting.

I'd look and see if I had a tire slightly out of round

[BudMan]

Sandy, what led you to tighten yours?  Were you experiencing any handling difficulties, and if so did the tightening resolve them?

Thanks Michvalk, I'll check for OOR tomorrow.

No wobble or handling issues. The front end fell from side to side too easily and I had over 100K on the bike.

That slow a wobble is most all the time tire.

I'm going to start a tire war here.

Are you running an AVON front tire?
How many miles on it?
Got a tad bit of cupping on it?

Dat be ur culprit, tightening the steer head will eliminate some of it, but it is still there.........

One of the reasons I went with the Metz front tire and CT rear.......

Flame away....................

Had the same problem and a wheel bearing change fixed the wobble.

Well it is certainly easy enough to check for bad bearings whether they be in the wheel or in the steering stem.
