Help with stem and movement
Well I dunno whats wrong but I pull on my bars and my stem moves up like almost an inch, it has alot of play, is there a bearing or something in the lower part of the stem, (thing that connects to the tierods and stuff), I think I need a new one.. also my tie rod ends are shot, but I cant afford to buy new ones, im just gonna wait to get a new front end. So i'll just keep tighteting them every race.

So what exactly do you need help with? There is a bearing at the base of the steering stem. It is probably shot. Mine is in the same condition and I will be replacing it soon. They're only about 20 bucks.
Oh ok so I need this new bearing and everything is cool?

New tie rod ends are like $40 also for a set from Brad aren't they? That's not too bad. If they're getting bad, do whatever it takes to replace them. I wrecked once b/c they were getting bad and I'd been waiting to fix them. Not bad, but wished I had replaced them. Do the smart thing and find a way to get some new ones.
