Hi, If anyone can help, I have a 1996 SB6 that requires a lower fork yoke.
I noticed that both sides have cracks in the original one.
or if unavailable can anyone suggest an alternative.

I just went through this. I have an SB6R.
Check with Evil Chicken to see if they are the same. (I believe they are)

Anyway, I found mine through grafbimota.de in Germany. Translation is a bit of an issue, but Mr. Rudolf Graf makes it work.

You can also contact bimotaspirit.com (USA) and email Bob. I know he has one as well. (be very patient as Bob takes his time responding)

Good luck.

You will need a shop press (or a VERY big hammer)....ask me how I know.

I think the 6R lower is the same as the 6 ... it's the top that's slightly different

I had a lower clamp and stem made up for my 400 by Jamie

Because of the design work it was £400

Keeping with the Bimota flare... a one off hand made billet piece. Wink
