Sam Green Racing:
DIFFERENT NUMBERS FROM DIFFERENT MAKERS.
GOOD BEARING SERVICE SHOULD BE ABLE TO SUPLY BY CROSS REFFERENCING.
SORRY FOR CAPS, ONLY GOT ONE HAND, HAVING A NOSE BLEED.
bryanj:
I think you will find those FAG bearings from dresda have the outer races ground to a smaller OD than original
paulages:
when i replaced my steering bearings on my cb550 F4, i was surprised at the apparent air gap between the top of the headstock, and under the spanner wrenched nut that hold the stem in place. i couldn't quite tell once it was tightened down, but it appears as if dust could get under that nut and into the bearings. didn't have a dust seal upon disassembly, nor does honda show one up there in microfiche, but it seems vulnerable as is. maybe tightening that nut down against the bearing seals it somehow, but if it rides on the inner race, how is that possible?
does it normally sit like this? seems like it would have to in order for that nut to not drag on the frame, but i couldn't help wondering if something was amiss...
