Fitting a Hatta Headset - Dipsticks guide required

Hi Guys,

This will be the first of probably many stupid questions I'm going to ask. Motorbikes I seem to be fine on, but my Laserlite is now pretty precious to me and I'm terrified of killing a hard to find part.

I got a Hatta MX2 headset today and need to fit it to the frame - something I've never done before. I've put a piccie below of the parts - could someone give me some idiot proof instructions on how to fit this please!



I can see how the bearings go inside the cups but which bit goes on top of the headstock and which goes below. There is also a small washer (bottom left in the picture) that has a little locating bit on the inside, but I can't work out where that goes in relation to the other bits.

Thanks for the help!! I will learn.............promise!

will pm you ::)

mark 2:
The 6th item down - twat it into the top of headtube. You've got one cup too many there. Choose the best one out of the top 2 and put it in the bottom of the head tube. place bearings facing down on the crown race on your forks , but I can see you've not got one pictured....Poke you forks through headtube and place bearings face down  on top  of headtube. Screw the big bit  ( item 5) of forks, then that washer with the bit sticking out, press that down on there. Then tighten it up with lock nut  ( item 8 )

is item no. 6 not the fork race ,,,,,, could be my eyes though  :shocked:

That's what I thought it's the Fork Crown if the top 2 cups are the same size.

It's dead easy.
