748 Cracked Handlebar Clamp

  1. Never dropped the bike in my possession , is it common for these to crack?

  2. Have a look at the underside of the top yoke to see if the locating holes have been elongated from an earlier off. Funny but there was a post on Facebook just the other day from a bloke who just had this happen to him.

  3. Location pins look all good Ian , maybe the roads here ; they are not the best

    A defect in the casting , was not too sure if it was a common issue

    Steven the mechanic who noticed it , said the other 748 he restored had a crack in one too

    Was lucky , he ordered the wrong side and it was the side I needed
