did they make different length ends then?
Quote from: griff on November 18, 2013, 03:15 PM did they make different length ends then?No, it was just an idea that never worked or they never bothered with. I think though that the aluminium rear end was a different length to the Chro-moly rear end (early models had the Chro-mo rear end).
They definitely dont have rake on them. All the ones you see with raked forks are just bent ones. If you need forks put right, I know a guy, who knows a guy, if you know what I mean.
