Hi, I'm struggling to find a front end to fit my RD350 YPVS Hybrid. I can find a few sets of yokes, but forks (or a complete front end) I've had no luck as yet.
I've missed a few on e-bay and I'm keeping a look out, if any of you guys have any please contact me.
Are there any alternative forks I could use that are the same length and diameter as VJ22's, what about ZX636 or ZX636R?
As always, any help and advice is greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Sam

Hi,
Sure I have a set of GSXR 400 Gk76 forks that fit the rgv yokes.
Look like the seals have gone and the bushes have scored the stanchions so will need re chromed ( philpots) or new stanchions ( All Bike engineering )

Can do pictures

Oops. Nearly forgot. I've got a set of RS250mk2 forks up for grabs too.

Hi, There is a GSXR 400 on e-bay that has the following:
K5 front end (I'm guessing GSXR1000) with bored out RGV yokes to take the forks, radial calipers.
Would this work on a YPVS....or would they be too big/thick.
Any thoughts guys?
Cheers, Sam

Hi, Do the aprilia rs 250 mk 2 forks fit into RGV yokes and are they suitable for a RD350 YPVS?
Are they the same size as RGV 250 VJ22 forks?
I honestly haven't a clue....
Thanks guys, Sam

Thanks guys, Sam Will measure the outside diameter tomorrow. TBH. To keep it simple you should stick to one type of front end like an RGV or RS250 as either will fit with very minor mods to the bottom yoke. Unless you can get bona fida info on what mix and match will work and what needs done - stay well away from it. Mixing and matching = engineering bills. Either way good luck with whatever way you decide to do it.

RS250mk2 fofks are 53mm where bottom yoke clamps and 50mm where top yoke clamps.

Thanks for the info on the RS250 forks, I think I'll take your advice, keep it simple and stick to a RGV front end.
Thanks Sam
