Taper head race bearings.

(1/6) > >>

royhall:
Hi. Bit of advice required if somebody could oblige. Am about to change the head race bearings on my 750F2 for taper bearings. Have bought a set that has the two races (fairly obvious which is top and bottom due to the different sizes). My kit also came with a large steel washer. Does anybody know where this washer goes. I assume it's there to build up the stack height to match the original ball races. My guess is that it goes underneath the bottom race on the yokes, but it is only a guess. Help Ta.

I wouldn't swear to it being correct, but I fitted mine to the top of the upper bearing, where the adjusting nut contacts it, mine came with no instructions, but 15 years later still works fine. ;D

Hi,
    don't know about the 750's, but it goes on the bottom of the yoke stem on the 400/4, it stops the bottom yoke "catching" the frame bottom bearing housing area.---ken

Trigger:
It is known as a steering washer and it goes on the bottom of the stem. Then it is the rubber dust seal and so on.

The frame I have got has which I can not believe has all the races removed.In your opinion do I go for tapers or the bog standard?I have no problems with the standard stuff only asking because never fitted the later.
Cheers
Bitsa
