hahaha i love how you blokes say "only 75" LOL that in Aussie pesos is $200 which is more than i've paid for any of my F/F's. back on topic and there was a set of landing gear on the bay this week and they went for 67usd, which is about 34 pounds. they would have needed paint and obviously new decals but still good value. so if you are a bit handy there are bargains to be had.

Thanks again guys.
I had seen the Standing Gears on Alans website and it started me thinking. Because my bike is as used original I'm not sure if I outght to change it really. I could have bought a set of Standing Gear forks for it as they were introduced while I was still riding so I don't know.
Its interesting that SE are thinking about making new ones though.  I cant see a problem as long as they were marked up. The worry about buying secondhand stuff is that they might have been abused and you don't really need to find out when they fail.  Saying that though I'm not sure the bike will see any more serious use anyway don't think I'm up to it either.  ;)
