what you need to do is take off the plastics and have some one turn it like you said and then try to pin point the location of the noise.:macho
How the heck are we suppose to know what sound your bike is making?:p
hope that helps :cool:

prolly ur bearing, ther like 10 bucks but check to see if its them or ur tie rods or tie rod ends or the lower shaft bushing
oh man, thats bad. looks like yer just gonna have to bite the bullet and buy those extended a-arms you have been avoiding, and of course with that you'll HAVE to get new front shocks, and when you do that, you will HAVE to get a new rear shock (lest you be uneven), and since you have all that new suspension to move around, you'll probably just HAVE to get a new steering stem and stabilizer, probably one of them trick little wrist wresters from houser as well so the problem does not re-occur. Sorry I had to be the one to break it to you, but I think you'll recover just fine :D
