Hey guys -
I had posted that I was working on a 1974 Aermacchi SX250 rebuild for flat track racing. I have a few questions that maybe someone with experience can help me with.
Is there a better front fork setup that anyone can recommend? I am looking for a flat track seat/cowl setup that isn't $180-200...everything is way over-priced.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,

--Steve

ooooo I remember those skinny little front fork tubes :| almost anything newer would be an improvement.

for the seat cowl, what about the seat pan and plastic tail from a Honda Ascot FT500 ? add a couple of big ass number plates of your own design

Do your forks have to be period to race, or is this for shitz and giggles riding?

Too bad you live so far away and in a different country, I could easy set you up with the appropriate bits.

Is it like Moab

Moab is good for trials bike.
... that's a bit pricy you could beat the shite out of that price up here. Wow! it's even damaged, those people have big balls.

Looks as

minimal functional as I would ever want one.
maybe shave a couple pounds off with a tubeless rear tire if they sell such a thing, that one has 2 rim locks.
