VERY NICE work Andy :clap:
If you fit the R6 fotks can you do a dog a faver and post me the distance between each fork leg center as they are mounted in the yoke. I got thundercat in my B4 and using the stock Suzi yoke the forks are held slightly closer together than they should be and the calipers run very close to the spoke of the wheel, so if the R6 measures up alittle wider i may get some.
Many thanks Chris.

Hey Chris,
As near as i can be the measurement your after is 160mm.That`s between the the fork end`s(spindle) and the same measurement between the fork`s right up at the bottom of the bottom yoke,hope that`s where you mean mate.....
