On curvy the easiest and probably best solution is a complete SRAD-750 front end. You get internals which are a fine base for any tuning you want to do, even as standard they are a massive improvement from stock.

yorkie_chris. Druid has been very helpful with me and found me a set of TL1000s front forks and yokes. will these fit my Pointy? im not looking too much for adjustments etc becuase my bike is basically a good looking workhorse :P i just want better looks, and ease of fitment due to me being abit slow on mechanics.

Yeah the stem will go into your headstock with stock bearings. I have no idea about the steering lock or lockstops though.
For pointy I would be looking at K1-K3 600 or Y-K3 750. This is proven that the steering lock and lockstops work as OEM intended with no messing.

TL forks are made by kayaba which is not where I would start, knowing what I do now.

Well at least you believe in going the whole hog, or copper in this case!

I like your style but a bit OTT if you ask me.

according to druid the steering lock is in the right place, what do you mean by lockstops?

and can anybody tell me what a TWF is?

Steering lock is in the right place for the curvy, I forgot the pointy put it offset to one side.

Lockstops are what stop the handlebars going too far and hitting the tank etc.

The wheel & discs I'm selling also fit the SRAD btw.
