You wouldn't believe how easy it is. Get a set of 43mm conventional forks on you know where, rebuild'em. It aint all that much. That guy beat me to the punch with the RoadHolder badges! One problem comes up when you do things like this. It reveals shortcomings in other areas and you can wind up with a bike that doesn't even resemble a Commando when you're done.mcns said:Personally I like it.
And I think those front forks would work better than the stock norton one. Everytime I go into a rough road I wish I had a modern jap suspension on my norton(not just for function but also safety)

That's about as good a definition of art as any. The thing is, that builder could have built you the cafe racer of your dreams, if he chose to. Those holes though are an abomination. If he had done it with an arrangement of trabeculae, like the inside of a bird's bones, it would have been fabulous. God's own finite element analysis.R Model Tony said:That's Gods way of telling you that you''ve got WAYYYYYY too much money...um...and time...
willy mac said:I ask myself "WHY" and then the answer comes back "Because he can" still doesn't make it right, it looks like something that Orange county choppers would turn out then push into the back of a truck to show on a stage somewhere.
