Default Pointy forks needed.

I need some forks, perhaps a steering stem too but i wont know that until i take it apart.
Im willing to look at just stanchions, complete front ends and perhaps even a Gixxer front end to swap over as long as it comes with Ikea like idiot proof instructions.

Go one, help me get back on the road so i can carry on giving bikers a bad name all over the place. You know you wanna.

PM me or send your venerable carrier pigeon, he'll know where to find my superhero hide out, they all do. There is pigeon crap everywhere here!

I was told about this glad you not badly hurt anyway, as is normally the case, it's a time issue, with an experienced eye it can be seen whether they maybe worth straightening in which case Motoliners are your best bet (£60 a pair). you'd have to post or get them dropped off thought.

but if they are to far gone then ABE will do new stanchions for £80 each.

of course finding someone with a pair sitting in their shed would be cheaper, but once again a time issue is involved.

Cheers Mark.

I have a pair of straight curvy forks in bits, PM me if they're any use to you, also may have a spare set of Debrix emulators too.

I have the forks from my minitwin for sale. Maxton sorted, I don't know exactly what that means but they feel stiffer than standard to me. They have the adjustable caps from a K2. The seals need replacing but I will include the genuine seals I bought for them.
£80 plus postage.
