Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The triple tree (or yoke) is the fundamental piece that connects the front fork and the chassis of the motorcycle. Inside it are housed the steering bearings, which allow the smooth turning of the handlebar. If play or strange noises are detected when moving the steering, it is very likely that these bearings are worn or poorly adjusted. Their inspection and replacement must be carried out in a specialized workshop to guarantee safety.
