steering nut?
Can anyone help with the nut that goes on the top of the stem? I think it's an m20 nut but with a 1mm thread its the lock nut that I need.
Thanks
Thanks

Where are you put a rough location in your details,Your local Honda dealer can get a lot of parts cheaper than ebay.Went to mine today to pick up some bits they text me when they are in stock

Re: steering nut?
Hi RD,
Just pop you rough location in the profile and it will appear on all your posts. Can be useful when you need bits for peeps to know there you are!
David Silver is a good place fro mail order but it's worth trying your local dealer first as Wightegi suggests. Even if they have to order it it only takes a couple of days. Phone up, pay with card, then collect the next day if you are lucky.
There are a few on here with a garage full of bits so maybe you will get an offer if anyone has one kicking around.

It's the nut sitting on the seat I worry about most

I find it best to let them dangle off the front of the seat as a sort of anchor to stop you slipping backwards....
