its a stock r1 one, iv done it, the air seems to be gone, it feels smooth, but the shaft has a little freeplay as it changes directon, about 2-3mm, is that normal, i cant remember what it was like before. when on the bike if you move the bars back and forth as the freeplay takes up it makes a little tick sound.
