seriously strugglin here guys HELP
im feed up guys with my fork search, only a few sets of legs come up on egay every month and hardly none of the sellers define if they are the early or later type, even when asked , most dont know.....
so im desperate for 2 clear pics of what the differances are between the 2!! pleaseeeee.
iv just bought 2 sets of forks off egay just in the hope that at least 1 are the right right ones just for the stanchion. SICK.
these are listed as early type....but look identical to the other set too i bought, which are not described as either early or late type..

and these ones i asked the seller and he didnt know..... some one must know
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWNX:IT
from the pics in the listing, they look the same too me!!!???
rescue me please so my rebuild nightmare can end.

Re: seriously strugglin here guys HELP
Yep both later type - the early ones don't have the adjuster at the top of the forks.
Its just a big nut with a small screw in the middle (iirc) on the early ones.

Re: seriously strugglin here guys HELP
yeah like this im sure(cheers rick lol)

are these early ones, this is what mine look like too.
the bolt does shoot up some from the big nut too, same as the later ones. its hard to tell them apart in egay add pics unless the pics are from the top.
