Unfortunately, the RGV lockstops are at the back of the yoke and the 3TJ lockstops are at the front!

It needs the RGV ones ground off (done) and new ones welded on, that's the bit I'm at now. Just waiting for the opportunity for a mate to weld something in place.

Will stick with the SP forks sound like a bit mission to fit anything else.
Need to take the forks off htis weekend and replace the oil seals.
Not done this before so maybe asking questions next week.
Thanks for the info

If you can stretch to it then get some replacement springs too.

Forks been stripped and rebult and feel great.
What a change just replacing oil and giving it all a good clean make.
Also have full rebound adjustment now!!
