Re: Twisted but where?
Compo, I can get my hands on something like that from a friend who does drainage etc. but not today so I've used mine again which does self level and has a cross but doesn't tell you angles. IMG_20231001_124058_4.jpg The first thing I did was set a piece of 9mm glass level and set the bottom yoke on...

Re: Twisted but where?
Got a Clinometer and went for a play. Checked everything possible, horizontal brace under the seat, the horizontal bracket that bolted to the frame rear of the fuel tank, both were the same. The 2 outside horizontalish spine tubes, same, each fork, same but the 2 forks differed by 1 deg. the rh one ...

Re: Twisted but where?
I wasn't looking to centralise the frame from the engine, just to make sure it vertical Rob, though the engine cradle could be buggered so that would throw that out of the equation. Regarding the twist, It looks like it's bent in the middle and the headstock is also twisted. Just going by the laser,...

Re: Twisted but where?
Thanks both. I was thinking a do at home version Al. I was worried about using the engine and the laser lines seem to contradict each other. Were you looking for wheel alignment as a priority?

Re: GPZ1100 for sale
Can't help with the bike but she's also selling 3 Triples. Also, in the feedback I see that she's bought something off Nigel Ultim8pc, maybe he can shed some light

Re: Twisted but where?
Cheers Warren, when you say use the engine, I can vertically laser the fins on the outside of the crank casings or use the ally mag and ignition covers where they mate to the engine.

Twisted but where?
Ever since getting the ST home a few years ago I realised the frame or yokes were twisted. I've lived with it for a couple of years but now it needs new boots I'd like to try to narrow it down. Bit of background info: The front wheel sits to the left by 1.5 inches when a straight edge is offered up ...
