Tapered roller bearings in the R1 fork installation, not before. I knew beforehand that the steering lock wouldn't line up but that's not relevant to your situation and the advice I've offered. 
With correctly fitted tapered roller bearings in your bike, the steering lock would align correctly with the rubber washer in place. I asked previously whether you did the double-torque thing to set the bearings correctly. Did you?
