Use the link below. Bookmark it. At that page you'll find the breakdown diagrams for all the subassemblies. In particular, you want the one labeled "Front Fork-Front Fender". I suspect that your stem nut is loose and the steering damper was keeping it all together. When you loosened it, the steering bearings fell out.

Do a search on this site for "Dream steering bearings". They are 1/4" diameter and you need 37 of them - 18 in the top race and 19 in the bottom. You also need to get some manuals. Some are free online. If I can find some links, I'll post them for you.

Thank you, Roadrunner, but I'm fairly new to these great bikes and 99% of the members here know much more than I.

There are some free manuals at the link below. Save them. Depending on what you intend to do with your bike, you might also consider investing in the Silvers restoration guides, but I'd recommend that you buy them directly from Mr. Silvers at http://www.vintagehonda.com.

Manuals: http://www.scramblercycle.com/honda-250 ... nuals.html
