    Hi guys. Firstly I have to say that my ST is the best bike I have owned. Absolutely love it and I'm gutted they dont make them anymore. Only bought it as a stop gap when my New mt got stolen and now I'm hooked !

    Two questions

    Is it possible to free up a seized rear preload adjuster ?

    And when I am ready to go new again is there a real big diffrence in the st and gt ? I know the gt is longer meaning slower steering but is it that noticable ?

    T I A

    Thanks guys. I'll give it a soak for a week in wd40 then give it a try. I was worried about snapping it and the bike being off the road. I guess if it snaps then i just cant adjust it in which case i'm no worse off. I'll let you know how I get on.

    Nope. Sorry Dozers dad. Still can't find it. I usually search and check technical before posting but couldn't find anything.

    All free'd up now guys :). A couple of squirts with wd40 and a bloody big socket ratchet. Not clicking like it should but I guessed it. Was dragging it's arse like a dog with worms with a pillion on the back before.
