I agree with A565 - you should be using flour and water paste instead of glue. GO for 1979 honda express forks, they will make you look nice and gay.

Done a few fork conversions......P2 in a PK.....Katana in P2....NRG in a PK....Lammy in a V90....etc. It's easy just use your existing stock on the top of whatever fork leg you decide on although there are a few auto forks that wont give you enough turning without modifying top yoke. Also check fork stock in right place before final welding as its a p*sher to cut it off again when you realise you cant get your handlebars straight! Depending how far from Wiltshire you are i'm happy to weld your forks for you.

katana have a 12 inch wheel , gilera runner is 10 with disc etc, have done one of mine with katana 12 inch wheel you cant really tell from front to back !! but looks better with 400/10 rear tyre. Theres loads of forks on ebay all the time some reasonably priced, the offer is there if you get a set & want them modified.
