Odd yzf750 yokes ??

Post by Yoozy » Thu Jun 20, 2013 1:08 pm

These are on eBay, but I thought they were all stepped ?
The chap assures me they are definitely off a yzf750. Can anyone here shed any light on them ?

The later fully adjustable forks had a flat top yoke, earlier models were stepped. The clamp diameter is the same though.

the stepped top is there fellas, just a bad camera angle..couldnt see it at first, but then i closed one eye. :D
The lower looks right as well.
Havent heard any difference to the years on the YZF tripples, except for the special billet after market adjustable for rake angle ones....

You're both on crack surely - early YZF's have a very pronounced tapered step down in the top yoke, the listed one is as flat as a thing that is very flat with some extra flatness thrown in for good measure.

I tried squinting & closing one eye but it didn't work for me chaps :roll:
