I have a lathe and a milling machine and used to make Yokes and other bits for people...But the cost of Ali is such that it could well be cheaper to get an engineering firm to Lazar cut a top yoke..Just a thought. If you have a good engineering drawing it could workout not too expensive ..and repeatable ... Just looked at my supplier for Ali a lump of Ali 4" wide and 2" thick..( smallest length is 1mt ) is £257.80p Then the drawing and electric even if i did it for cost..See what you are up-against!! bloody inflation ... I am Shaw you will find anther Honda bike with top yoke that would work. Lyn..trying hard to keep my mind off life at the Mo.

Many thanks all...You may not think it but it does help:

No, it’s a BMW, made in Germany by Hitler.

Well at least they responded to my enquiry.

Not really a day ride but popped out for a couple of hours. Ended up at Damerells without really any intention of going this but I was near and needed to have a slash. Anyway had a look at what they had in stock. Had my Hornets twin in stock and a really nice VFR but not much else of interest. Washed the CBF off when I got back. Ended up only covering 60 miles. Better than nothing

Watching weather forecasts unfold for the South. I might be doing something in a few days...

Like always, we're here for you Lyn.

A woman in a supermarket is following a grandfather and his badly behaved 3 year-old grandson. It's obvious to her that he has his hands full with the child screaming for candy in the candy aisle, cookies in the cookie aisle; and for fruit, cereal and pop in the other aisles. Meanwhile, Granddad is working his way around, saying in a controlled voice, "Easy, William, we won't be long, easy, boy." Another outburst, and she hears the granddad calmly say, "It's okay, William, just a couple more minutes and we'll be out of here. Hang in there, boy." At the checkout, the little terror is throwing items out of the cart, and Granddad says again in a controlled voice, "William, William, relax buddy, don't get upset. We'll be home in five minutes; stay cool, William." Very impressed, the woman goes outside where the grandfather is loading his groceries and the boy into the car. She said to the elderly gentleman, "It's none of my business, but you were amazing in there. I don't know how you did it. That whole time, you kept your composure, and no matter how loud and disruptive he got, you just calmly kept saying things would be okay. William is very lucky to have you as his grandpa." "Thanks," said the grandfather, "but I'm William… that little bastard's name is Kevin."
