Installing the Front End

Decided to start installing the front end this evening………..hmmmm, those bearings were tight!! I made up a bearing puller out of 10mm bar so I could slowly pull them in with lots of grease… took a few hours to get them seated…. I definitely wouldn’t want to get them out again!!

The bearing & headcup, pack with lots of grease.
Fitting the home made puller
Tighten down the yoke
Front end on... and staying on!!
The forks and bars are on and I think that ‘Old Springer’ looks really cool… offered the front wheel up to get an idea of how she will look.
