Does anyone have the torque setting for the steering head bolt? The top one that is, I cant seem to find my manual anywhere.

Hi Blair, welcome to KSRC 
With the steering head bold I would usually do by hand to check for binding....with the front of the deck I tighten until she just starts to get hard to turn then back off slightly.
Oh & nice website, your avitar on here is a worry

Yes one of those moments when I should have thought about racing not what was on the shopping list. Not alot of damage tho. The ol girl (GPX) dosent go to bad for a bike that was made to go to the shops on. Upgrading to a newer 250 at the end of this season.
RE bolt..thats I was going to do as well so was just really a reasurance thing.
