yoke ID

[baldrick]

hello, im trying to figure out what this yoke is from. 

it was sold as a 750M but it looks like someone has replaced or modded the stem.

i dont remember ever seeing weld to the underside like this, but its got the steering lock cut out which would suggest its not been machined, more likely taken from another model and adapted to fit...another look tells its got a couple of spacers to the bottom of the stem, below the bearing.

holes are 54mm, which computes , bottom bearing internal diamater is 28mm, but the top, where the top yoke slides over is 23mm, and the top yoke ive got (off a L model) is 22mm, top yoke is 50mm holes, and top yoke deffo looks like a 750l,m 

 

so i guess what im asking is, is the bottom yoke stem 22mm at the top on a std 750 L,M

looking at one on bay shows it being threaded all the way to top of the stem. this one aint, its got an internal thread at top .

wondering wtaf its off? looks like i need a new stem machined (groan)

Any ideas?

I’ve got an RF 900 bottom yoke that looks similar to that one, Alan. I’ll see if I can dig it out and post pics.

all gsxr stems had external threads . that stem resembles the GS / Kat stems which had internal upper thread and the steering lock hole .

…Kat stem lock

yeah, its a strange one.

i guess its coming out though, i might have a gsxr one stashed away from previous swaps.
