(SOLVED)Cota 348 steering head bearings

[Montesa13]

I just looked in the 348 manual and it doesn't give the size of the steering bearings, just the Montesa part number

Yes I've looked myself David, the manual isn't that great for details :) If you have a secondhand outer top race that would suffice I think and I'd appreciate it very much. If so let me know how much you want for it?

Kind regards

I do not have spare Montesa races. I have spare Bultaco races, but don't know what size they need to be to fit a 348

OK David I'll measure the required dia. and get back to you THANKS!

Just checked 40mm external dia.

Also need the ID and the diameter of one of the balls

I was looking through my parts and found a steering stem with the lower outer race still in place so I've salvaged that and will try it tomorrow some time,
or when I get a chance anyway, hopefully that will work, can't see why it won't. Thank you David for your generosity of spirit and patience, it's appreciated pal.
