Post by: kev-s on July 21, 2012, 05:31 PM

before fitted with 1in ditchforks and profiles

the p.a's needed some work to file down a blobby repair weld then off to the powder coaters for some nice fresh black and new decals added

Looking good.  :smitten: I ran an almost identical setup on my MK3 Holmes BITD just before I sold it and bought my Bennett. I remember by Dad collecting the forks from the post office for me. First words he says when he walks in the door "I thought these forks were called stupid forks?".  :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:
