If you want to stay in auckland try Bruin engineering. Does lots of work on dirt bike suspension and if they aren't creased will be able to sort them out.

These guys supply aftermarket tubes, way cheaper than factory prices too.

wheel n frame or f1 enginerring get my vote!

Are they actually bent or just twisted in the triple clamps? Is the wheel pointing in the wrong direction (not straight)? Before you spend any money loosen off the bottom triple clamp around the forks, leave the top ones tight. Jump on your bike and bounce the forks up and down aggresively (hold the front brake). If the forks are just twisted in the clamps then the bouncing will naturally bring them back in line.

Hello,

Would anyone know where to get forks straightened? I checked my bike over today after my bin and found my forks are slightly twisted. Then I found out that replacements are around 2k ex japan and for a poor(ish) person that's a wee bit expensive.

There doesn't seem to be any creasing, but I am not sure...I am not overly informed in such areas.

Any sage wisdom would be appreciated.

BTW. Bike is a 99 Kwaka VN250 (new shape)
