Yamatard triple offset?

[Kitt]

Anybody know what offset OEM yamaha triples are, and what offset the motard guys are running?

Thanks!

I don't know what year yours is, but here is the chart. The Yamahas are at the bottom (just like the race finishes).

Looks like they are probably 25mm. The motard guys are running 10mm at Loudon on CRF's. The only people running Yamaha tards are the Shaw's and Hanlon.

I have 22mm offset aftermarket triples on the bike... OEM was 25mm. Curious if that was typical for sumo... I know ideal offsets for road racing are not always the most commonly made aftermarket option. Was hoping a yami guy would pipe in.

Hanlon is running 13mm off set on an 08 yz450.

Tri star has been out of business for years now. Even getting a set of their triples now is nearly impossible. And you'll have to respond to the ad within minutes and pay $600.

Pipe down over there Mr. 2008 FI... WRONG!

I didn't know they were out of business. Interesting. I should ask Martin if I can take them off his bike after the season and make some duplicates......

I got my triple clamps at the beginning of this year from DH1 Racing in Sparks, Nevada. Their website isn't up anymore though so maybe they went out of business too?

Also try these guys. The clamp for the 07 is different than the 08-09. The forks are 2mm further apart on the 08-09 model.

Cool, thanks for input guys... I need to sort out whether I'm on an '07 or '10 before I make any moves.

Ya 22mm is common offset for mx, I run those on my yz250. Sumo would be in the teens. For example, my crf 450 stock was 24mm and I ran 14mm clamps in sumo form.
