You'd have to fit the whole front end well forks a yokes or tripple trees as the yanks call them you need to take some measurements of the steering stem and length of forks but it's all doableat the worst you'll need a new steering stem machined.
Welcome.

Rather than spending the money on your forks, perhaps it would be worth investing in some lessons on grammar and comprehension?

I don't pretend to be clever, and god knows I can't even spell 'universitty' (see?), but PLEASE, have some self respect and read your own posts before you post them.

ShitLuck since 86? More like shit spelling....

I was tempted too, especially after "lefted", but then I thought, the guy probably didn't get the edukashonal breaks I did so why mention it.
