Something broken - steering (neck)

[francoblay1]

And while you got it apart, change the fork oil.

That was already done in May (and seals too)..... thing is I am not getting responses for the parts I need... yes I did try to contact Derek & Donna... no response.... always good in the past, that's why I ALWAYS shared their contact info in all threads where I see someone is asking...

"Kap" is also very busy by the sounds of it...... (no reply to my e-Mails) fuck it!!!

Anyways....... fuck it, I am not having what we could say a very nice day....... The YellowBitch is going to attract some dust for a few months...... or more...

Life is a bitch......


Catch you later.

I would think the neck cup and bearings are the same as Harley so you could go to any Harley or custom shop and pick up a set.

Very common failure. Especially on Ridgebacks & Pitbulls. New neck cups are $109.95 from Pro-1, and new Timken neck bearings are $30. Both readily available from any Drag Specialties dealer. 3 hours labor. C.A.Jones V-Twin | Custom Builds, Parts & Service

I know you are overseas but here is a complete set of cups and bearings for $53.

Franco, did you forget about the list of parts needed for your bike You need to stop drinking so much Sangria :roll:
I can get the cups and bearings for you no problem along with the tools needed. We didn't replace them while I was there that week only because there were not any available in Spain. By time you got them from US, I would have been back home. Let me know if you want me to send everything....
