Fork & Yoke Repairs Professional Alignment Checking & Straightening
After a heavy accident, forks and yokes should be checked for alignment by a professional. This must be done using specialist equipment, as it is not always possible to see any signs of damage with the naked eye.
Fork Checking and Straightening
We can check and straighten all types of forks including Conventional forks, Upside down forks, Telescopic forks and Girder forks.
The process is done using many special tools, presses and formers depending on the style and damaged of the fork again combined with our many years experience of fork repairs.
Yoke Straightening & Repair
Yokes are another commonly "overlooked" part when a motorcycle has been in an accident, yoke sets are very common to sustain damage, especially the bottom yoke and stem.
Even if a yoke set is very twisted out of alignment this will NOT be noticeable just by looking at them with the naked eye. It is sometimes the case after an accident that the forks would be perfectly straight but the yokes are very much out of alignment.
Do NOT assume that if the forks slide into the yokes that neither is out of alignment.
The process of straightening a set of yokes is also undertaken in different ways depending on the severity of the damage and the material (cast iron, aluminium, etc.) all of which can be straightened to a very high degree of accuracy.
