Does anyone have dimensions for the different models of yokes fitted to GSXR models. I am interested in USD fork models although I'm sure others would like to have a reference for ealier modes. And the dimensions I'm looking for are the pitch between the fork holes and the offset to the spindle hole although diameters may be helpful also.
Alternatively can anybody indicate what model upper yoke will fit only K4/5-600/750 legs and bottom yoke (apart from the same models) it's just so I can widen my search as looking for K4/5-600/750 yokes seem to be like looking rocking horse ****, perhaps I shold make one! |

Wouldn't it be handy if all this info was in one place?

Thank's Amnesia, I have already been through that however and very useful it is too.
But while it does indicate parts which will fit from specific bikes and their model years it is still not certain which parts could work across different bikes/years. For instance it seems I can use an upper yoke from on 00-03 or 04-05 750 but can I use either of these with either lower yoke? Both have the same diameter fork mounting hole but if the pitch between them is different then no chance of mixing. If the offset to the steerer hole is different probably same story althogh if I know dimensions I could work out if this could be made to work hence my question. Also knowing dimensions I could manufacture my own. Ideally I'd use parts from the same bike or at least from a single model but for some reason the top yokes seem to be a bit thin on the ground. |

Another question. I was looking at a set of forks today with the bottom yoke attached and noticed that the axis of the steerer tube was not in line with the axis of the fork legs, looking from the side the forklegs were running more steeply so that the spindle would be further forward.
I'd never really thought of this before I always just took it for granted that they were the same. Should they be like that or is the yoke/steerer bent? |

Looking at the 1000 yokes (because they have all the data filled in) none of the spacing or diameters changed from 00-04 and (presumably the 600/750 is the same but up to '05 when they changed to the narrower, 53mm Dia, fork leg, although there is a little bit of 'assumpting' going there as some of the figures are blank). The http://www.gregoryli.com/search/label/DIY data indicates that yokes from all model years are compatible and infact early ones may be better as the clipons locate with screws as per TL-S Thanks again. |
