CockneyRick Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) Can anybody help, as i have barely any knowledge of these wateryfangled things! I'm fitting parts to my Slabby framed drag bike & have fitted (in error) a top/bottom yoke that was too narrow at the forks. I couldn't get the wheel in & tightened up with the spindle sticking out on both ends! Looks like 207mm. I have got what i believe are 750W forks, wheel, discs & spindle. It now seems the yokes (2 top 1 bottom) are most likely from K1-K3 series, as they are 207mm spacing, & also have a centre damper mount on bottom yoke, one of the tops have the damper weights underneath too, so i think that's likely Busa & the other, not a clue? So my question finally is, other than the 98> 750 USD, what other yokes will fit? Top & bottom! I have learnt that i most likely need a 214mm fork spacing? Forks are heatshrinked, so are silver underneath. Edited June 15, 2017 by CockneyRick Quote Link to comment

Madb Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 92-95 750 yokes are spaced 214 and top 50mm bottom 54. but use different top bearing to 96- onwards. 1 Quote Link to comment

Ive just measure my slingshot yokes in me bandit, they are 214mm and with a slingy stem will plop straight in a slabby apparently 1 Quote Link to comment

Swirl Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 didn't I send ye a set of yoke dimensions Rick, I've got a set on a bike I'm building at the mo 50/54 750 srad Quote Link to comment
CockneyRick Posted June 13, 2017 Author Share Posted June 13, 2017 Erm, can't remember lol Quote Link to comment
CockneyRick Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 Actually i don't think you did, nothing in threads & pm's? Must have been someone else? Quote Link to comment
Swirl Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 cant check I emptied, my pm, I sent it to someone Quote Link to comment
CockneyRick Posted June 15, 2017 Author Share Posted June 15, 2017 Right, having researched, It seems that i can only use the SRAD750 yokes to match my forks/wheel. But i had a thought, what's the difference between the 750 & 600 wheel? I'd assume it's same wheel but bearings are different? Less thickness. Again assuming the spindle(s) are the same again? Might be a cheaper option just to change bearings (again) rather than pay silly money for a 750 yoke set! Quote Link to comment

Dont know where you got that from but the wheels are identical and so are the bearings 25x52x15 for both 600 and 750, and slingshot 750 yokes are the same spacing at 214mm and 50/54mm. so why cant you use them???

CockneyRick Posted June 15, 2017 Author Share Posted June 15, 2017 So the diff is all about the yokes, everything else is the same? Just wondering then if i put say 25x52x12 or less in, then the spindle should work properly! Quote Link to comment
CockneyRick Posted June 15, 2017 Author Share Posted June 15, 2017 Then again, discs will still be too close to forks, my bad! Quote Link to comment
fatblokeonbandit Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I've got a 54mm bottom yoke from a slingshot, its for my project next winter, but you can borrow it if you like to mock everything up and see if it all works out?? I've got a sling shot stem I could press in if that would help?? Quote Link to comment
CockneyRick Posted June 16, 2017 Author Share Posted June 16, 2017 Tis ok, i got one from "Meltedsliders" top & bottom yoke for £70. Also got the other arm thingy,will try it in a bit Quote Link to comment
