The castle nut under the top yoke was too tight (not the center nut) At least it's alright now |
Colin,
Regarding your quote: "The castle nut under the top yoke was too tight (not the center nut)"
The castle nut under the centre nut is the steering adjustment tube...it should not move! What exactly have you done to "make it alright"????
I have all the tools to adjust/dismantle the headstock..plus I have done it at least three times...plus I have a yoke we can measure to compare...plus I live in your town and am offering assistance if required!
Call me if required.
