Bike has been boxed for three years and I’ve started rebuild.
The crown nut on top of the steering head doesn’t match the threads.
I’ll post a picture as I’m most likely using the wrong nut.

Re: 750 GT crown nut
Measure the threads just in case it is wrong. It could just have a damaged thread.
Best idea is to get a new shiny Stainless Steel replacement. I had one chrome plated and bought a new stainless part and I prefer the stainless one.

Re: 750 GT crown nut
Buy a stainless replacement with a domed top, does away with the black plastic insert and looks the dogs doodahs. Mark Read on here sells them.
Look, my paintwork hasn't got "Fish scales" 
they're "Dragon scales" right!!! However, after some thought, I will accept "Black Marlin" or "Swordfish", but definitely not "Haddock" or "Cod".
