Hey Guys,
Well I've been spending this winter refreshing my '89 750 and have just ran into a snag with the head stem bearing races. I have taken everything apart and like an idiot, didn't bother to take photos
.
After screwing up my original head stem (I stripped the inner thread when mounting the upper triple because the lower race was not seated properly in the head tube) I finally got a replacement.
Before I go any further and mess this one up, I now know the bottom race is recessed into the head tube, but the top one is sitting about 1mm above the head tube. Is this correct or should it be sitting flush?
On the plus side, this has been the only hiccup so far on the rebuild
