fork and yoke graft
Permalink  
 


Motorcross forks, kx yz cr, try to get a complete front end, can work out expensive if you buy them individually. Yu can fit the Mudguard on them aswell, not sure on your aprilla 1's

Forks, yokes, spindle, wheel, spacers, calliper. The DT speedo won't fit onit so you might have to buy another set of clocks like the vapour.

Swap the stem from the DT yokes onto the gilera yokes. Will have to be done by an engineering firm tone pressed in the yokes.

Measure 1 of the forks top to bottom then ask someone to measure a standard DT fork leg, you don't wanna be fitting smaller forks, it'll lower the bike hence why we've gne with big yz forks. :)

thanks...i cannot see the gilera forks being the same size as the dts but they did not cost me anything and are in good condition.and look the biz.if they are no good i suppose i can see about just using the wheel and brake. then get hold of a back wheel and hope its not to much of a bugger to fit...what usd's would you or any one else recommend??

You could always sell the gilera usds' and put the money towards a proper set of mx forks, just a thought.
