hi all.i have the sr250 ready for mot i think.just one thing is bothering me.when i pull the front brake and push down on the forks the handlebar mounting moves.i will try and explain.the bottom half of the handle bracket fits into a rubber sleeve that fits into the top yoke.the rubber sleeve i guess acts like a shock absorber.if that is right then the mounting should move right????.here's a pic to explain better.the part im talking about is 13

sound like its ok to me skik, unless it has become worn and the movement is excessive?

you'd have to get them from a yamaha dealer, if they are still available they will order you some

try tightening them first, maybe just loose.

Whether it will pass, depends on the MOT tester but if you've noticed it you tester will too.

Thats fine mate

Many are now rubber mounted.

All Harleys are like this now.

I would pass it and have passed a couple like this just last week.

thanks everyone.its passed no probs
