Hi There
Started assembly of the steering head bearings spacers yokes etc.
something is clearly wrong. So where we are
This is where it starts to go wrong
So is there something wrong with the bottom yoke set up?
But looking at what units are available this would mean the two existing lugs on the tube are wrong, but they look right even with ground chamfers on them??
I'd appreciate the wealth of your knowledge.
Thank you

something is clearly wrong. So where we are
- New bearings & spacer set ordered & fitted from AN (OE was single ball set up). Bearing are seated right down against registers in the tube, removed and refitted bearings without spacer measured internal & external and there the same, so i know that the spacer isn't holding bearing off the registers.
- I always knew there is something odd about my bottom yoke as i cant find this design listed/available anywhere and certainly not two lock stops welded onto the steering head tube
- Or indeed a removeable bolt on inverted "T" lock stop
This is where it starts to go wrong
- There isn't enough thread on the shaft to fit a lock washer & barely enough thread to get a full nut
- When you insert OE headlamp support brackets, the distance between yokes is excessive
