Hi All,

Well it looks/feels like my steering bearings are shot. Still "knocking" and very tight. I have several bearing houses in the area and was wondering if anyone has the bearing numbers? I would check myself but I want to have the new ones on hand when I do the teardown.

Also anything I should know about changing them that is not spelled out in the manual?

Thanks.

I'm a little curious about the steering head bearings also. I have mine stripped down now and the steering yoke has about an 1/8th inch movement up and down, but is solid the otherwise. Is that normal?
