Things it needs to be
Preferably disk brake, with caliper etc..
Semi small... a older 100cc front end.
And mostly cheap :)

Glen mate, you're not the only one looking for a better front end for a GP! Are you after an actualy GP front end, or something better?
Ivan

cheap is my budget..
something like a FXR150 front end would be as big as they could be.. prefer triple clamps too...

I have been looking at that its been there for ages offer him a cheap price
And if the springs are to soft wack somevalve springs in that hardens the springs up

or cut the progressive bit off, heat them up, compress them so the bottom is flat, and put a nylon washer on the top of some alloy tube(must have a hole or it will work like a piston) in the bottom with the spring on top.
watchu reckon ivan? to techo? hahahaha :shutup:

Ive meet the guy my self, he has hundreds of parts all over his house literally, he can be a bit dodgy for example my brother bought a piece of shit bike from him and a couple bolts where loose on purpose so that my brother would have to go back to him!.
So if you do buy it make sure everything all sweet and you could possibly swap him something + cash for em.
He's a bit of a scooter wrecker
