If not available in the Motorcycle spares world
try some of the bearing manufactures / stockists like

would hope that steering head bearings used by Bimota must
be used by some other thing, but then again !!!

Very rare, expensive things.......
they have barrel shaped rollers to compensate for rake adjustment Wink

there's already a thread on here about them.
I think it might be in the YB section Wink

I seem to remember there are 3 pairs to achieve different steering head angles they go in +0.5, 0.0, and -0.5 degree angles

Hi

If they are the same as YB ones then I was told many years ago that the only other thing that used them was a Mercedes truck.

All the best

Or you could try these? This person has NOS Bimota stuff, as well as slot car racing (strange combo)
