Re: Cbr900 fork conversion
Do yours have the compression adjuster on the bottom .
And what side is it as I have a spare one but it's the one without the adjuster

Re: Cbr900 fork conversion
Yeah they have the adjuster on the bottom on these ones think i may have newer forks but an older model triple right hand side has the broken bolt in

Re: Cbr900 fork conversion
Just added another set of 900 forks to the collection as i have bought another pair which are in good condition and no snapped bolts will repair the other set and keep them for a spare pair for either bike.
Still waiting on the clip ons
Whilst on the subject any one have any ideas on fairings as both sides are total loss really

Mario has a set of second-hand fairings that he will sell, his email address is - mario.nava@tiscali.it

Re: Cbr900 fork conversion
Bugger ! But did they clear the tank and fairing
Re: Cbr900 fork conversion
Yes as far as i can see they will do the job perfect
I got in contact and showed them photos of the clips they are sending me the clips in 45 mm and apologised so just have to wait a little longer till i get it back together

Re: Cbr900 fork conversion

i must say that woodcraft were very good sorting the mix up they made so plus 1 to them
Ordered my new fairing which should be here in the next week or so.
Once im done tommorow with the track days il get in the garage and do a right up on the woodcrafts for any one else who would like to go that route.
