I have a 05 Vulcan 2000 with 27,000 miles. I need some guidance, I noticed this grease run on the Rake tree. What should I be checking for or is there any maintenance that I need to do?

Hi V2K,
Your periodic maintenance schedule says that at 15,000 miles you should:

• Inspect steering play
• Lubricate steering stem bearings.

This information will be shown in your owners manual also.
The picture you have shown doesn't indicate a problem of immediate concern. Over time bearing grease can breakdown and separate into thinner components of petroleum. That's what is likely happening here.
