Nopé I reckon he did Uderstood the question and he's right the frame is there alright. Butt the engine has gorn! OP this a motorcycle forum, and while a few here might also admit to riding this sort of contraqption on our roads free of charge, most of us do not like these bloody dangerous machines.

Too many sikk wheelies bro?

Lift the frame, hit the fork with a rubber mallet and the fork will fall out.

^^^ what he said. few taps should do it

see the little collet in there? thats what is holding it together. What you have there is a standard 1 and 1/8th inch "Threadless" headset.

Ditto to this....the bearing collar is pinched on the fork neck:msn-wink:

LOL: nice try. the stem is off the bike. the star nut* is the thing that tensions up the bearings but the stem is what holds it together.

Science, bitches.

Yes, but put a piece o wood on the top before you hit it - so it doesn't distort the metal - or you will have even more issues ..

Rubber mallet will be fine.
