Anyone know anything about this mob? Was advertised on CF forums.

Need triples to put CBR USDs on my VTR thou.. these are $375 USD which seems pretty damn good?

Assuming I just give them the measurements of CBR forks, vs VTR headstem etc, and they can make something up that makes it all fit together?

I dunno shit about this stuff.

Hey sen did you add all the additional costs up mate, there a bit more than $375..
the set I just added up to what i would like is nearly $800..

First thoughts...That sounds cheap..too cheap...
Looked at the pics on their site and there are lots of machine marks on the yokes.
How much is postage gonna set you back ? probably about US$100+
So your looking at around AU$550 min

cnc machine marks are fine. cant be avoided. kind of look cool i think.

Ouch. What's the extra bits I need to think of? You mean bearings and all that?

Ohhh shit, I only scrolled a bit down to the general shapes,didn't see it kept going and going haha..

Yeah looking at that, would definitely cost up close to a grand. Plus forks. Plus the rest.

Probably not worth it until I get a better bike :P

They are a bit rough round the edges, but even at $1000 delivered they aint bad value, with a bit of time spent cleaning them up they could look quite smart.
Remember though, once you hit $1000AU$(including the cost of shipping) you are up for 5% import duties, and gst on the whole amount once the 5% has been added on.

I remember reading on CF that 929 or 954 front ends bolt straight in - just need to make new steering stops.
