Anyone know what size my forks are exactly? I measured roughly 53mm; were there any changes through the years?.... for top yoke or lsl type super bike kit.

If I'm not mistaken, then yes, 2005 and later yokes have a larger bore for the forks than earlier.

Thanks Gunter.

Hmm, not sure they do. We would have to look at the parts books, but I think the stanchions are 54mm diameter on all XBs (apart from the 08 Uly) but the slider grew from 41 to 43mm.

What's the plan birdy?

O yes, you are right, I think I confused the stanchion with the tube. It was 43, not 53 mm, but seemed so familiar.

Pash. Thinking bout putting s bars and yoke on my r...always was a wish, but lsl conversion pricey. Got Harley risers in the garage...but bit apprehensive about drilling the r yoke as theres no going back then.
Just thinking of options for the winter layup

Ok, bought xb top yoke off eBay, but it has the ignition barrel slot as per my firebolt, so i do no need to reposition that as I feared.
Would it be off a Uly then as the XBS ignition is to the side?

It sounds like it's probably another firebolt yolk.

Not a bolt yolk; hasn't got the separate holes for each bar..
Uly got the ignition barrel on the yolk like the bolt?

Nope, on the side...

Post a picture and tell us what you really want...

So that looks like a Lightning (or Uly - but I would have to check the stanchion diameter)) which someone has put a piece of bent plate on to take an ignition switch.

What is it you need if it is not that?
