Triumph t140 steering stem sleave nut

baz · Mar 22, 2024

Would anyone know if the thread of the steering stem on the t140 was changed at some point?
I have a chrome steering head sleeve nut that won't fit the stem
The thread appears more corse in the nut

Early OIF bikes had a coarser thread. Not sure what year it was changed but certainly before disc front ends began to be fitted. I have a feeling it may have been one year only (1971) but not sure about this. All T140, T150V, T160 etc have the same (fine) thread.

That makes sense
Looks like I've got a sleeve nut from a conical hub type yoke then
