WoW.  Amazing design - never seen them before.  They sort of look like wire spokes but even more minimalist 8) Are they made out of an alloy? I imagine they would polish up very well??

These are magnesium.  I remember ready long time ago about people having them x-rayed for integrity.

Did yoshi make stuff for the cb550?

Forks on this bike have the yoshimura stickers on em , some kinda 4-1 exhaust,  wondering if it's a yoshi pipe.
Not hand bent obviously but I recall seeing yoshi pipes that were similar
