    Bike is 2013 WR125...

    Clarification: I'm referring to the slotted ring nut that is under the upper triple.

    What size is the steering head bearing nut? I need to go buy a spanner wrench for it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks!

    30mm on my WR. Just a side note for you and others if you are ditching the tank vent hose for a smaller one way breather, plug the hole in the top of the steering shaft. If yours has a steering lock, water going down the tube will enter the lower steering head bearing via the steering lock cut out in the tube. I have used Honda part number 53232-MJ4-670 this part is a very good fit and will block most of the moisture going in.

    72racerx, can you post a picture of the 53232-MJ4-670 part?

    Never mind. Thanks.

    HSrider, where did you get your 30mm spanner. Trying to avoid running all over town to find one.

    Thanks

    Forgot to mention earlier this plug will only fit Huskies with the larger inner diameter steering stem.

    I found the 30mm at Sear's and decided to get a set of 5 bigger sockets in case I needed a different size in the future. I could of bought just the 30mm by itself though.

    HSrider, so you bought a 30mm socket instead of "C" or "J" wrench. Right?
