Installed my new balljoints and it seems to be real tight. I know we all like it tight but its not real easy to turn the handlebars with the front off the ground. It turns consistant with no binding or anything but Im just wondering if this is normal on a fresh install and as soon as they get a little time in them will they loosen up a little??? The ball joints were a LOT stiffer than the floppy ones I removed.

No it seems that its stiff even with the machine on the ground.
