fork triple tree Explanation: Triple Tree ("triple clamp" (US) or "yoke" (UK)) attaches the fork tubes to the frame via steering head bearings, which allow the forks to pivot from side to side, and therefore steer the motorcycle. https://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/Techinicale/Triple_Tree.ht...

(Not all of the images in the links I have provided are of ‘triple tree stems’.
