So while doing the forks i have noticed the head bearings are notchy, quite bad, so need new. Now when i look at the Yamaha parts its about £100.I have seen the Marksman kit [size=78%]http://shop.marksman-ind.com/yamaha-fz1-2001---05-headrace--steering-kits-23350-p.asp[/size], from what i read the tapered bearings are better was will last longer, if i buy the marksman kit will i need anything else for the job? Better to replace any wee cheap parts while in there is they are perishable.Seen this topic [size=78%]http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php/topic,7518.0.html[/size] and it has me a bit worried on that the parts will all fit fine? There is a rubber washer mentioned, any idea on part number?
I still have that bike and stick by my comments even though they maybe unpopular.Parts provided by marksman were a wrong fit.
