Thanks Danny that makes sense. Ghost I did make sure I seated both races completely so no problem there. I was just going by the write-up that said after the tapered bearing install your bars will sit 1/8-1/4” higher so I assumed that would make the procedure to set fork height in the manual irrelevant.
Before I did remove my forks I marked a line with a fine point permanant marker up against the bottom of the triple but ot was hard to see. I removed the right fork this morning and found the faint line so I set the fork back to where it was originally and when I measured how much protruded from the top of the triple strangely enough it was back at 12mm (the stock height) which should mean that really nothing has changed with my setup.
Not sure why others did the bearing install and end up with their bars higher?
Seems mine is good to go and I can keep using the stock measurement.
Also installed some fresh wheel bearings so it should ride smooth now.
