Yamaha 43 mm top triple clamp
« on: October 15, 2008, 07:32:22 pm »
I am after a 43mm Yamaha top triple clamp with the upright bar clamps, I think they came with YZ's about '83/'84 and TT 600's about the same time.
Anybody???

The only triple jumps he would have been doing are the hop, skip & jump.

Pretty sure I've got one Brenden. I'll check tomorrow and let you know.

250,
Does the H/bar clamp sit straight up or lean back towards the rider.

Nathan,
That'd be great thanks.

Buggered if I know and its at the "other workshop" that I won't be visiting until the weekend after next.  You in a hurry for it ??  If you are I can get someone to take a photo for me.

And the further north you go the slower things become.  If you go north of Cairns things start to go backwards ;D

I'll have a look when I am up there next, but I have a sneaking suspicion that they are leaning back.  You never know I will have a look and let you know.  Yours for prtice of postage and a beer at CD6 if any good to you.

Looked at YZ250H.  The handle bar mounts lean backwards.  I will check IT465 next week-end

Glad you found what you are looking for  ;)
As a matter of interest what model did you end up with that had upright bar clamps

YZ250K.

The G/Hs have the swept back bar mounts to clear the extra long forks.
Don't know what the Js have (remembering that the Js have coolant passages).
The K/Ls have 'normal', shorter forks, so they get the upright bar mounts.

Not real sure about the IT-H/Js, but they've got 38mm forks anyhow.
IT-K has upright bar mounts.
