[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 131044, member: 597"] These forks can be bought with billet yolks and the top one is a drop yolk........ I have the short 680 mm length ones on my Norvin single race bike.........It probably depends on weather you want to lower the front to help the Turn in for the steering a bit better........On another Norvin twin I have just finished, it has the Norton Roadholders that measure about 700 mm from the axle center to the top of the taper on the tubes. As you probably know the tubes of the Ceriani's will slide though the top yolk and you can set the height to whatever you like..........The 40 Lb springs seem fine for the single, but might be too light on for a heavier twin if that is what you have. The GP 35 R is the ones to get as they have fully adjustable pre load, rebound and compression damping........This makes tuning the front end very easy.........Just a quick word of caution, the lower comp/rebound adjusters come set up fully soft, this is so they can bleed/fill them with oil easier.......you need to set these in approximately their middle click settings before a test ride, or else you might give yourself a scare........Well it scared me....... I fell off the damned thing......... Cheers....... Greg. [/QUOTE]
