    they have them. You may have to call if they aren't on the website. They will be listed under the "Dax" parts.

    Anybody know how to get these bushing out? These and the steering bearing races are the only things holding this baby back from being powder coated!!

    Pineapple,
    I have had these pushed out by my local Honda dealership. There has also been on situation, where they didn't get removed before powdercoating and they are fine??? You can order from Vintage Honda Elsinore CR125/CR250 and MR50 parts | QA50 parts | Z50 parts | CT70 parts | SL70 parts | XL70 parts | XR75 parts | XR80 parts | Seat Foam

    Hey thanks. I think I'll make a trip to the dealership and see what they can do. How about the steering bearings? I'll be replacing them with the newer sealed bearings, but can't for the life of me get the old races out.

    If they are the stock ball bearing races they can be knocked out with a socket, extention, and hammer through the neck from the opposite side. They are expendable, since you're going with a tapered bearing set up.
