Forks

Post by MickeyMoto »

Hi,

Anybody know if the 31/2 / 500 forks fit the Kanguro? Too cold to go and measure the diameters... :) - fancy twin discs and road rubber....

Also, anybody got any suggestions for lowering the rear shock? Will a shorter road shock fit?

thanks,

Mike.

Hi Mike,

A few years ago Robinh44 posted a lot here about some radical modifications he made to a Kanguro, including (I think) Husqvarna front forks and a completely different swinging arm and rear suspension. It might be worth checking for information/inspiration.

Regards, Mark.

. . Excalibur parts should fit, it's basically the same frame and I think I;ve seen eslethread that the forks are the same . .

Hi Mark,
I forgot about Robin's 'suoermoto' but - think it had a single disc.

Boris, I think Excalibur has a single disc too. I sometimes feel the single disc setup marginal so thought about improving on it.

Regards,

Mike.
