This might get complicated!! I am currently changing a SR cafe racer I bought off ebay with a dodgy frame onto my SR legal frame and upgrading/polishing a lot of things. The year of the dodgy frame I do not know, however the year of the legal frame is 1985. The steering head for the dodgy frame is ball bearings, the legal frame is roller bearings. I have looked on www.cmsnl.com/
They only do upto 1981 and that is ball bearings for the steering. Anyone UK based know where I can source roller bearings from?
Was hoping to offer up the forks to the new frame without stripping them, but best plans never go to plan!!!
