Steering Stem Bearings

That slight wobble...especially when leaning left is back. Changed out tires...fixed it for awhile. I read it could be the Steering Stem Bearings.
I heard that on the 1300's they needed to be changed out.
Anyone have any experience with that?
Mine is an '06 R

I'm up to trying it myself, but would like to know if there are any tech sessions scheduled to make sure I'm doing it right? I'm not seeing any scheduled.....
