Bottom yoke

<< < (3/4) > >>

Sesman:
The original was supplied DK. I’ll give them a call.

Dare I ask, did you straighten that?

Sesman:
Trigger. Just for info, the stem looks good on mine. The daylight in the second photo is the relative gap having placed a flat edge on the opposite stanchion clamp. Do I have a chance of twisting it back....maybe. Or is it scrap value only?

Sesman:
As you predicted. Back to David silver, these bearings are certainly no use as direct replacements.

Sesman:
As you identified in your earlier mail link, If I lower the bottom bearing height by reducing the supplied shim depth to achieve the correct headlamp bracket fit, the bottom yoke would foul the steering stop plate. How very disappointing. Still, with decent headlamp ears in short supply, should we care.....I do.

I suspect though that demand is too low drive a proprietary solution.

Bryanj:
With the 1mm shim i fitted yoke did not foul and brackets were fine.
And if you insist on straightening that yoke a long bar of the correct size to clamp in tightand do it cold as its cast stee
