    Seems the forks popped back into 'square' when we loosened the triple trees......
    someone has been playing about with it all as the bolts and screws were not 'factory tight'

    Hopefully it will all be 'correct' when we have the wheel on and all tightened up.

    Should I loosen the steering stem also? ...... does having it 'done up' align the triple trees ?

    17/56 is stock (428 chain ... 130 links min)

    13 is way too small and the chain will have been chewing into things.

    Have a play here , but stock is the way to go initially .

    Only in asian markets with limited factory support, most likely Thailand Yamaha exclusive factory made.
    There is information on all of it if you look, but probably still in conception phase.

    The flying grasshopper finally came off the wooden blocks
    New front wheel bearings and seals ..... and I 'think' we may have straightened the front end skew... bit of high speed testing needed though.

    nearly looks like a bike ......
