Re: [DucatiST] Re: Steering Head Bearing Replacement

 

Ricardo,
 
Yes, you missed the top yoke pinch bolt.  It pinches down on the stem.
 
Turn the bars full starboard, and access the pinch bolt from the port side.  6mm allen head.  I use an impact driver to fully seat the bit and turn simultaneously.

Alright, I am in the middle of it now, bike hanging nicely from a beam secured across the rafters, I pulled off the top yoke, and unscrewed the steering stem nut.

Now it seems like the bottom yoke and steering stem should just pull out, but they seem to be quite immobile. Is it possible that I missed loosening something? Is there a missing step? Should I just be more persuasive with a rubber mallet against the top of the steering stem?

Thanks,

-Richard
