Top Yoke Nut

#1 Post by BigGuy » Mon Feb 19, 2018 5:33 pm

Hi, I'm just wondering what others have done for their steering stem nut? I have fitted an 08 R6 front end to my RZV frame and currently have a semi rusty stock RZ one on there. Ya, it will work, but it kinda looks, well, un-good? From what I can tell the threads on the RZ stem I have pressed in there are M22 x 1? I found this nut

online and in my opinion just looks 'the business', but for whatever reason, they just refuse to sell or ship anything to Canada or the US? I'm thinking there must be something like this on this side of the pond?

Thanks for the input.

Fowlers of Bristol in the UK will ship one to you - they are excellent to deal with and give a very good service

Cheers

I have an aluminum nut made to replace the OEM chrome plated steel nut. A local RZV specialty shop in Tokyo sells them. If you PM me with your email, I can send you a pic.
