neonsurge Posted April 22, 2005 Report Share Posted April 22, 2005 I've just noticed a big crack in the upper yolk on my '02 Rev3 near the pinch bolt. Guess I overtightened it and hit something hard at an angle during the trial earlier this week. Anyway, having just spent quite a bit of wedge replacing seals, bearings, C&S etc., the bike maintenance fund is somewhat depleted so I'm trawling around looking for a cheap replacement. Are the yolks on all Rev3s the same? What about earlier models, would a part from one of those fit? There are a couple of complete assemblies on eBay, but the description says "from a Beta trials bike approx. '96/'97 - no further model information". Failing that, anyone got an upper yolk they'd like to sell me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuessenhigh Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Neonsurge...I guess you've already seen it..but if not, there is a top yolk, from a Beta Synt...on ebay uk. It LOOKS similar to the Rev3 one to me..but I guess its unlikely to be the same?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neonsurge Posted April 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Yeah, seen that Stu but unless I can get it for next to nothing, I can't really afford to take a flyer on it at the moment. I guess I could email some measurements to the seller, but it looks like there are a couple of people chasing it at the moment. Thanks for the heads-up though!

stuessenhigh Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 No worries...its almost certainly a no-go..but I'll ask around here as well, in case there is anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neonsurge Posted April 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 I spoke to Lampkins' yesterday and a Synt yoke definitely WON'T fit a Rev-3. And after disassembling the front end of the bike it looks like the broken piece is too small to be welded New part ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
