Hi Marcel, Yes somebody else suggested fork alignment, I did double check them again today. It is looking like the headstock is twisted in the frame.

Well I have a bent frame! twisted at the headstock, strange for it to be off to one side and not bent back. The guys at Hybrid Motorcycles are a great bunch, he cleared an area for my bike as he didn't want it to get scratched whilst waiting for be fixed. he had 2 other 350's there, one was a Hybrid too.

Hope it goes well Phil, i had to get my 31k frame straightened and got the guys who make 'ABBA' stands to do it, nearly went to 'Hybride MCs' but 'ABBA' were nearer to me. Mouse

A right p1sser it's bent but at the same time at least you know what the problem is and it can be sorted
The ypvs frame is a lot stronger around the headstock than an lc so tends not to bend back but can twist
At least it was spotted before built up too far

Let us know how you get on with Hybrid Motorcycles, as they may be an alternative option for other people with similar issues.

Yes I’m glad I found it now and not when it failed the MOT!! Will keep you posted on the progress, I’m back at work now so the guys they have until Easter to do the repair. He said he’d cover it up for me to keep it clean 👍.
