PX125 headset out of alighnment after attempted theft

[jas5010]

Hi,

Someone attempted to rob my PX125 yesterday and now the headset is out of alignment with the front wheel and bucket. I guess they were trying to break the steering lock. Has anyone had any experience with this and what possible damage could have been done.

Hopefully they have just moved the headset on the forks via the headset clamp.
At the back of headset there hole to access the bolt.
Slacken it slightly. Hold the forks/wheel central (best with a pal) then alighn the headset, by eyeing through the headset and wheel... Dont use the mudguard to eye up.
Once happy tighten the clamp bolt

As gpowel said 👍 but they might have also bent the bolt, so might need the replace that, but shouldn't have any problems getting it all lined up, let us know how you get on

Last one i dealt with after an attempted theft had the fork stop damaged so headset touched legshields.
Had to reshape the stop back.

Best of luck hopefully you can get sorted
