Steering Head bearings

Post by BruceB »

Currently rebuilding the front end and changing the headstock bearings, have the new balls and the two available races top and bottom but can't seem to find anything for the two inner frame races.
Since these are the floating ones and identical I thought it would be easy to get these but I cannot identify anything from the parts manual and nobody seems to stock anything apart from the two I have.
Does anybody have an ID number or a source to buy them from?

Whilst Steven may list them neither he nor the club have any. The ones available on that well known auction site obtains them from Wassell and they are not correct to fit the frame. The club are working on at the moment but as usual they are just taking time to get done.
