Hi all, desperately seeking a lower yoke and steering tube for my 1977 XS650D. After a total rebuild I have done around 50 miles and it runs pretty well but the steering is a bit out of line. I have just stripped it down again and the lower yoke has a slight bend in it. Does anyone have a spare they can sell me? Many thanks.

If need be, and it's just a slight twist, it's possible to straighten a bent yoke.

I did think about straightening it out myself but thought I would have a look for a replacement first. I have no knowledge of my XS before I got it so don't know if any of the previous owners have tried straightening it or how badly it has been bent in the past.
Good plan.
Save the "bending" as the desperation move...

How desperate are you? I've got one, but I'm in the U.S., and it's a pretty heavy part.
Yes, and yes. Give me a few minutes, and I'll figure out the shipping cost. I will PM you.
