vertx starnut in tilt forks

[Robert]

will it work without modification?

 

[Kroto]

yes it works

 

[Robert]

ok thanks

Just wondering.. Why?

I thought the Tilt Forks have their own Bolt

"The fork is internally threaded, allowing the top cap to twist down and secure your fork down with no movement or risk of loosening off. "

[Chris Vincent]

Mine has never come loose.. ever.

Mine has never come loose.. ever.

its because my hic shim isn't cut straight and every one i buy that isnt cnc'd isnt cut straight

 

[D ∆ V I D]

Mine has never come loose.. ever.

same. only problem I've had was my scs pivoting off center when tightening.

 

[Robert]

does anyone know how to contact vertx to get a starnut or will anyone sell me one?

I would try to file down the original shim before driving a Starnut into the fork

Looks like you'll need the 7/8" Starnut since the hole is smaller due to the Fork being thicker

Mine comes loose after 5 mins of riding. I've NEVER had a scooter that stays tight.

Link to the Integrated Starnut?

Can't find the item on their Site you are talking about, only thing I found was a normal HIC kit with a Normal Starnut

The only thin I could find was in the description on one of the forks where they talk about:

"We have included our Threaded Insert technology eliminating the need for star nut."

ya its really annoying i cant tighten it all the way otherwise my top cap will rub against my deck

but when i get it just right i will start riding and right away it will come loose

mine comes loose occasionally, but its like impossible to tighten it all the way without my scs spinning, i want to do this too.
