I just bought my first Harley. A 99 Dyna.
The steering head is loose. I asked around and apparently it isn't original. I can't see any brand or numbers on it.
To tighten it, there isn't at big nut on the top like std. It has what seems like a long bolt, going up from the bottom, through the bearings and into the top. The head of it is round, countersunk, and only has a slot to tighten it by. I made a tool out of a socket with a piece of flat welded in and tightened it a fair bit, but it still has some slop in it. The slot is 1/16" x 1 3/8".
Can anyone tell me what brand/style of head this is, and also if there is a tool made for tightening it.
I've probably got 30-40 ftlbs on it, but the tool I made slips out and I don't want to damage the slot.
It has Burliegh bars on it. I looked on their site, but it only shows bars, no steering heads.
