Identification of fork yokes

Forums

A friend has a set of yokes and stanchions from a Norton project that he bought a long time ago. They where left over with some other early LS Manx parts and Inter spares.has anyone any idea what they could be off?  The stanchions measure 520mm. The top yokes has no fitting points for handlebars and has the number N4 T777 on the underside, The bottom yoke has the number N4 T555 on it.

Any info would be much appreciated.

Thanks

My top yoke matches your number but has round protrusions that accept a two piece handle bar clamp to fasten around. This is for my 48 International that has the correct long roadholder forks.  Quick measurement of 7 inch centers for the stanchions.

 My lower yoke number is tougher to read, looks like n4 t59?8? but I know they are correct to machine as the secondary number that the factory stamped in front area of yoke matches the record card. 

The 520mm length looks close (slightly longer) to what the site has listed here for Manx length long roadholder stanchions. Take a peak at the technical section for stanchion lengths.
