No worries dude. Sweet headsets too. If you want to part with one, I wouldn't mind another to restore  :daumenhoch: For fundage of course.

Couldn't wait and just finished one cup. Took me about 40 minutes, but I think I have it. The bearing race on this one was a bit tweaked so I took some extra finagling. Now I have about 8 more in various conditions to do. I actually collect these for my Fuji Feather restorations, these were the stock headsets that came on them. You'll see one come up for-sale every 6 months or so. NOS run $100+, used and abused anywhere from $30 to $60.

These were THE best headsets in the mid to late 70's.

Thanks again. I am going to do a detailed blog post about this once I have time in the future.
