so the ones that were about a couiple of years ago with solid drop outs were they the same as this ?

Nope, they were a different fish altogether with 3 or 4 differences to the K serial and the boggo USA ones.

You'd wonder why somebody would do that to the forks, bound to have had a reason $:-\$

If you look at the first pic of the forks, on the inside of the left dropout it looks like it has been welded under the arrow. Skyway forks are prone to cracking so maybe he wasn't happy with just the weld and decided to double strength each side to be sure $:-\$

Quite right Snav69,TA fork dropouts were very prone to cracking.I have a pair myself with some rather fetching
cracks in the dropouts.Could well find if he does remove the plates on these forks that there are some cracks underneath.
