Did mine last week, couldn't feel any play in the head race bearings though

Anyway, put bike on paddock stand and hoisted the front up with the aid of a roof rafter......off with front mudguard, front wheel, and fork legs. THEN you'll notice anything amiss in the headrace bearings.......Mine was tight/notchy., so I stripped it for a look-see. The grease had gone hard [what was left of it] so I cleaned the bearings and races for a better look. All was well, so fresh grease, and reassemble.....beautiful. As the forks were off, I changed the oil and refitted everything,- what a difference...
