I just added to this sticky the thread containing Phil's unsuccessful attempt to import dual sport tires for the Zong. Brother Phil was a decent, honest man; we truly miss him. :(

I just added a link under the Maintenance subheading for a thread describing the proper procedure to tighten the triple tree/steering. Forum member Alan566 posted the excellent question in this thread, and forum members Wild Alaskan, and Weldangrind, provided the superb answers. Thank you, gentlemen.
