    Steering Head Noise

    I was riding my 83 185s a little while ago and I started hearing a popping noise in my steering head. I just replaced my front hub bearings if that tells you anything. And there is no slack in the steering head so I was wondering does it start to pop before it gets slack and goes out or is there something that I am just missing?

    Yea I am going to check them but there is a ride this weekend where I live so I am not going to check till after. Has anyone had this happen to them before and could anything catastrophic happen?
