Title: 37mm fork replacement option
Post by: birdhandler on September 27, 2010, 11:56:48 AM
It looks as though the VL250 forks are a straight replacment
on the tarozzi website http://www.motorcycle-parts.com.au/3_PPMP_Tarozzi_Standard_Fork_Tubes.pdf the fork tube is 10 mm longer
I know most people here are after an upgrade if you are not this maybe an inexpensive option  :icon_confused:
here is a link to some pictures of the bike its an entry level harley wanna be imho!!

Uh... That front end does not appear to be an upgrade over the GS front end.

It's hard to tell from a lot of the pictures, but it looks like it doesn't even have a fork brace.

You could well be right about the fork brace  :mad: as I have put a bid in I will let you know
I may end up swapping out the fork tubes
Thanks
