Re: [ST] front forks

[Erik Miner <Axeis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you can find a fork that will fit correctly LET ME KNOW!!!!!  I 
don't think the Daytona will work it's a 45mm tube. The TT600 forks 
are 43 mm but the hubs are different although the brake carriers are 
in the right place. I think the TT600 forks will work but that you 
will need to replace the front wheel with a TT wheel also.. I think 
you may find that a rebuild of the fronts and an aftermarket rear is 
the way to go .Depending on your location I can give you few 
recommendations on who does good suspension work in your area.
