STEERING STEM BEARING Replacement - Any Pointers?

<< < (8/8)

bjohn07:
so what bearings did you end up going with?   anyone know any skf or national part numbers.   , ive done this a bunch of times on street bikes, same concept. usually i just use a spanner and crank it down to get a good seat.  back it off and then put it snug enough to where there is no binding when moving the triple from stop to stop.   screw driver and hammer work good but you got to be careful.   the top 6 point nut is the one that should be torque set. and the setting im not sure. 

TheGDog:
Thank you all. The Beast is back up and fully operational as of today. :)

(SIGH... now I gotta put on the new rotor for that KDX200 and install new Front Brake Master-Cylinder Rebuild kit. And I probably have to get a caliper rebuild kit for it too. Another story for another thread ;-} )
