[QUOTE="Peter Holmes, post: 109406, member: 302"] I think I prefer the rather more understated lightening or lightning (take your pick) solution for the Girdraulic fork blades, but is it dangerous, I had a pretty big T bone crash at 40mph with a "I did not see coming" elderly female driver, but never the less still claimed I was going far to fast, even though she had not seen me, go figure!, but I digress, the only part of the fork blades that bent were at the very thinest part right at the top of the blade, it would appear that due to the limitations of material dimensions they are not drilled there, still don't like it though, if it was any good I would have thought Patrick Godet would have tried it on his fabulous Isle of Man Grey Flashes, would it have got him the first Vincent 100mph lap, he was very very close to it.
