top yoke - keithfzs1000 - 12-04-13 Hi all my naked fzs1000 conversion is nearly finished however looking for advice on how best to sort the R1 2000 top yoke it looks battered and dont really want a cheap yoke protector on. Choices I see are another R1 yoke but looking at the same year will probably be crud too or a billett/cnc yoke made to measure but as I have the fork extenders a FZ1 might also fit  :rolleyes So peeps let someone talk me to a conclusion that looks trick but doesn't involve me begging the wife for additional funds lol  :rollin Once this is done will upload piccies its not everyones cup of tea taking the fairing away but to me it does look the dogs danglies so far Re: top yoke - R1FSR - 12-04-13 what have you done clock wise ? ..replaced them ? Re: top yoke - stevierst - 12-04-13 Will the original top yoke not polish up? Nothing better than shiny alloy!

Cheap and cheerful ... just like me :lol Re: top yoke - keithfzs1000 - 12-04-13 still kept clocks,  as wasnt sure if it would run ok with aftermarket clocks cheap cheerful sounds ok but spent a lot on wheels and headlight etc so dont want to comprimise on yoke tried polishing it up and its got too many deep scores in to look nice Re: top yoke - devilsyam - 12-04-13 fz1 yoke fits and looks way better and the ignition is back center Re: top yoke - keithfzs1000 - 12-04-13 does look nice but the ignition mount would be in the way lol as am mounting original clocks to the yoke somehow  and what diameter is the riser mounts as already got some billet risers Re: top yoke - bludclot - 12-04-13 sand out the scratches and powder coat it? Re: top yoke - keithfzs1000 - 14-04-13 anyone know the diameter of the mounts for the risers on the fz1 yoke?? as said earlier already have some risers and wanting to know if the fit the fz1 yoke Re: top yoke - stevierst - 14-04-13 Just taken my risers off today, which bit do you want measuring? The base of the riser that hits the yoke?

There is a soft rubber `seal` that fits around the riser, and that all sits in the hole in the yoke, although it's not an interference or contact fit. The only part of the riser that touches is the very bottom of the riser, and it rests directly on the steel lined bushing in the yoke. Hope this helps.
