Poll closed.

The answer was: Steering.

It failed on notchy steering...  ...which has taken me ages to find, and even now, I'm not 100% convinced - with front wheel raised, pressing down on handlebars, a very faint notchiness around striaght ahead can be felt. In my mind, this would be the upper bearing, not the lower which MOTer said  :-\
