Title: Bultaco Lobito 175 Mk5 - alloy head stem nut broken - what to do?
Post by: mboddy on March 03, 2008, 07:54:02 am
A friend is restoring a 1971 Bultaco Lobito 175 Mk5 USA.
The alloy head stem nut under/inside the top triple clamp is in many pieces.
Are these available? Or does someone to a repro part?
Or should he get one made in alloy or steel?
Any suggestions welcome.

There's a bloke who sells billet non standard (better) nuts on eBay for $25 from time to time. I've bought a couple and they're pretty good.  Failing that try Peter Schone at Bultacoparts http://www.users.bigpond.com/bultaco.oz/
