				| Hello Forum members. I have a YB5 with shot steering head bearings and I am having difficulty sourcing a new set. We haven't pulled out the verniers yet ( that is the next step).Does anyone know the bearing numbers for these so I can order from a bearing shop or online? Thanks |

				Well ,you can all stop looking!! After a few calls to bearing shops we found a set. Apparently these aren't as rare as we first thought . My bearing guy says
 
 these are used in some Guzzis,Ducatis and even in some Fiat cars.             So, no more notchy steering head for me!! |
