Steering stem help needed
While out riding yesterday, my steering went away. Looks like the bearing on the bottom of the stem pulled up through the carrier/washer. Has this happened to anyone else, and where can i get the parts to fix. I no longer have a dealer I can go to . Last week I relaced the seals and wear rings on the front and the dealer charged me 135.00 bux just for 4 seals and 2 wear rings. So we had a fallout over the price, never the less i had to have them so i left. Thanks for your help.

I would imagine that you could add this washer. Its just a big thick concave washer that covers the hole in the frame so that the steering stem cannot pull through the bearing like yours has done. The only thing I would worry about is the length of the steering stem threaded end... as long as it is long enough, and I think it should be because I don't think they have changed the steering stem design, you will be fine.
