Steering lock Re-fitting issue on Superdream.

<< < (2/2)

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
A hammer fit should be easy enough to find.
I found a suitable Pop rivet in my tin of such things, used in days gone by to attach metal trims to cars. Can't find my Pop Rivet tool that I probably last used 10 years ago.

The part from DS was in Honda Package 53603-051-000.

Bryanj:
Ted the original rivet part shown on cms(steering stem page) is stated as a 4.1 mm and the pic shows it solid plus also used on CB500K so i recon the original was drilled out too big and something found to fit

Oddjob:
Yamaha used what they termed a knock rivet, just remembered the term.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I kept the old rivet, clearly not original, it's pretty much the same as the replacement, just a tad fatter in the middle waist, where it has expanded.
