Thats why I like leading axle forks. Haha. They look good on the bike Lenny. Go push on them and see if they get close to hitting the engine. How do they feel just sitting on the bike and pushing on them? Do they need better oil right out of the box? Post up a review after you ride them
p.s. I raise the legs in the clamps till you have a full inch or so sticking above the top of the clamp
Edit* looks like you have almost an inch sticking out already. Look at the "GPX" on your clutch cover to judge as a level. When that is level you should be golden.
i did that with the GPX and it's angled up but not so bad. with raising the forks more i'm worried about the front tire hitting the head....i was fortunate that Vince sent me a set of forks that have been "worked on" by Dwight Jones (i think) Performance Suspension. i'm not sure what the rider weight it was set to but after i get a feel for them in action i'll make what little changes i can to them to accomadate my weight difference. i tried my hardest to compress the front of the bike to where the tire to move up to the head as much as possible but there was still PLENTY of room....
i plan on writing up a review on them but i can already tell they're much more plush than the Pitster forks. the quality of the anodizing is horrible but i was made aware of that before i bought them. i'll eventually just remove the anodizing and polish the triples. the brakes are insanely good, i can already forese a one finger lock up the tire in dirt incident happening to me. i think we're going riding on sat so i can let you guys know how they do.
thanks for the props Thor
