It has a FLAT SPOT in the fork bearings at the center (straight ahead) position. (wants to stay straight) Thus, I think they will have to be replaced. Correct?
I am adept with mechanical repairs and have good tools, but I FEAR taking apart the fork assy, because maybe I will mess up. (no experience)
What is the BEST disassembly sequence to get at the bearings ? Should I remove the front wheel and brake assy to lighten things up ?
Are these CAGED bearings, or will I have hundreds of tiny steel balls falling all over the place ?
I know 300,000 CB350 were sold in US, So are parts easily accessible? Sources? Used parts ? Motorcycle junkyards ?
Do you know if the fork bearings from CB, CL, or SL 350s are the same? Will bearings from model years other than 1970 be the same?
THANKS in advance for your help with ANY ASPECT of this. I am CAUTIOUS because I LOVE this bike, and other than the steering problem, it is in very excellent shape, and really clean, too
