I have the same bike as you, mine is a 95 750 SS. It is normal for the fork tubes to be raised above the top yoke. 10mm seems low, mine is at 20mm (5 rings showing above the yoke) and I think its close to standard. Raising the forks through the yokes will alter the geometry and make your bike slightly easier / quicker to turn in. I am not saying this will cure the problem, but getting your bike back to standard settings and making sure everything is in good order is obviously a sensible place to start.

These bike are pretty old now and I found that things like forks, bearings etc were well overdue a looking at.

To echo Lin, I would remove you phone number and postcode from what is a public forum. If people want to contact you they can use the PM system and exchange details there.
