thanks for that steve i shoud have said non nsr as the parts bloke up here said he cannot get nsr parts not sure why

Honda can order NSR head races, I think a full set comes in at around £65 including seals. I knows yours are dead, you could feel they were pushing the bike around the yard lol

David Silver have got them. Reasonable prices too!

yep i took it out yesterday and it was knocking every time i hit the brakes i should have done them when i did the front end but the cash dryed up i knew that they have been bad for some time but its gone to far now just to pack them with grease again

thanks mate just had a look at silvers £29 for the full set and £7 for the seals but at that price are they oem ?

All OEM. I`ve had two sets from him!

just finished striping it down and its like shrapnel inside i think i need to get some ordered first thing next week

do they do a taper roller bearing conversion ?

Pidcocks claim the same "can't get them" (well the one in Derby does), they can't/won't look parts up for any grey import and won't order parts with just a part number provided by a punter. I think possibly as they're that big and organised there is no process in place for ordering a part not "on the system".
Whereas the tiny Honda dealer in Heanor will blindly order any part numbers you like to provide, he just writes them down in his book and orders them the next morning along with all the normal order which is also just written down in the book.

They'll just be generic Honda bits anyway, the same bearings, dust covers etc are used in the RVF400 as well.

That's a joke.

I had to order some parts urgently last year and went to Doble's, who I think are the biggest, as in shift the most new bikes, Honda dealer in the UK, and they ordered up the part from the part number with no questions. There should be no reason for them not to get the part...

I'd stick with OEM rather than taper roller Fenton.

The bottom bearing is the same as the VFR400/RVF400, but the top is much smaller.

NB. I think the top bearing from the VFR/RVF400 is the same as on the NF5 RS250.

Interesting then that they are the same part numbers;



The VFR400 is totally different (see here) and uses the same bearing top and bottom.

Sorry I forgot that the RVF had the spindly top yoke the same as the NSR. The RS and VFR400 share the same top as they both use the much larger steering stem.
