Cup – steering head
Steering head cup for the frame's steering bearing assembly, part number 97-0987.
This is the steering head cup, listed in our records under part number 97-0987. It shows up in the FRAME AND FITTINGS section of the parts book, which is where you'd expect it - the steering head is the part of the frame that the fork stem passes through, and the cup is what the steering bearings seat against.

Our catalog only shows this one listed for 1973, and we don't have much more detail on it beyond that single entry. If you're chasing this part down for a rebuild, bring in your frame or the old cup so we can match it up before you order.
Steering head cups take a beating over the years from road shock transmitted up through the forks, so it's worth having a look at the condition of the ones in your frame any time you've got the steering stem out.
We've never carried this one. Tell us what you're after and we'll go looking — you'll get a price and photos before you commit to anything.
