just curious if anyone knows the bearing numbers for the steering head as i wish to get a new set and dont want to go through yamaha, if i can get them at a bearing shop i know it will be cheaper and mine have a notch in the centre, 86 fj1200 1tx.
cheers in advance :good2:

I recommend the All Balls kit. It comes with replacement dust seal and everything.
I just cut my old bearings out with a Dremel. Hit it at an angle and didn't even as much as scratch the frame.
I also installed a zerk fitting so I never-ever have to take the stupid thing apart again.

nipple sounds better to me, like " I am going to play with the nipple on my "--------" (insert appropriate word, bike, girlfriend etc)" :lol:
nothing wrong with nipples, even better to lube up :blum1: chuckles
I work for Napa auto parts and we have the bearing in stock.
What's the number for the bottom seal?

Lower seal is a HONDA '79 GL1000 seal 53214-371-010

Was wondering if there was an "aftermarket" part number (i.e. not Honda, Yamaha) for the seal.
The bearing numbers above could be had just about anywhere (as Candieandy said).
