Hey guys,
okay so i can imagine this has been asked more times than you can count but searches seem to come up unhelpful.
Im still a noob with the bandit and absolutley loving it, the next thing im desperate for is to get a set of chunky gold USD forks for it, but i havent a clue which ones i need to go for and what to do.
Its for a 2006 K6 1200 bandit, i would like to know which forks i need to look for and what other parts i may or may not need =)
many thanks in advance!

Cheapest and easiest way is to fit 750/1100 slingshot forks, then you can use your wheel, discs, calliper's, spindle from the b12. the only problem now is finding a decent set with yokes and good chrome, TL/busa/srad are an option but you need forks, yokes, and wheel, discs and stuff, calipers fit though and you need the longest ones , I cant remember which year are longest but theres a chart on here. .. then if you want gold ones K series can be made to fit but are generally tooo short so you need a stepped yoke or a set of billet yokes to maintain the ride height..It can be doen for a couple of hundred quid if you are lucky and find a cheap good set, or you can easily spend five hundred???
