Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The triple tree (yoke) is the key component that connects the front fork to the frame of the motorcycle. The steering bearings are housed inside it, allowing the handlebars to turn smoothly. If play or strange noises are detected when moving the steering, these bearings are very likely worn or poorly adjusted. They must be inspected and replaced at a specialized workshop to ensure safety.
