steering head bearing race driver
hi all,
just got done putting in the 2 races from the all balls kit. purchased a motion pro steering head bearing race driver (08-0550) off amazon ~$45. the top was a pita and really chewed up the blue aluminum drivers. bottom was easy. only thing i'm left with is that their sizing didn't accommodate the top race exactly. but they are in. next time i'll try the park tool press. |

I used a big socket like 36mm, the old race as a buffer and a rubber mallet to get the ones on my FZ1 in.

When I replaced my head bearing races I froze the races and heated the headstock when installing.
