I've had a fair amount of bikes but I've never had to replace the neck bearings. Now I have actually worked on a friends bike and I tried to tighten up because it was quite sloppy and when I did I could feel there was flat spots and it was terrible to turn it. That was a heritage fat boy style Softail Evo. He had a lot of money done to it but they never replace the neck bearings they were terrible and I told him they needed replaced. I just got it running again for him cuz he left set for a while.
Use a high calcium content grease eg. helicopter wing grease. Works better for high impact situations. Also suggest getting neck bearings with built in grease seals to keep the grease in and dirt out.
Could please tell me the length of them forks I ordered the wrong length on mine measure from the bottom center of the back fork bottom of tree to to axel thank you
@@Rapsgarage ok thanks that’s about what Iam looking for for I ordered a 26 inch and there to long don’t like the looks of a long fork Iam thinking yours are a 22 thanks man been on here a year trying to git some one to get back with me thank you sir
I don't know how many places that azerk fitting is needed I drilled it and put it in whether it be the neck any pivot point like shift or break. They just seem to leave those out it makes no sense

Now you can do the neck bearings for him too.

Shoot now I've got to make another tool. Well it's always best to make something if you can I think
I've seen your work... you can definitely do it yourself!

I've done the same thing many of times. I can't understand why H-D doesn't put more of them in too.
Turn it upside down and warm it with a torch. They fall off.
I’ve never been that lucky
