Seems like a good idea at the time doesn't it?
I've got loads of ' good ideas ' in boxes at the back of my garage.
I've now worked out that the for the hundreds of pounds I've spent on good ideas I could have done a proper job on the original item.
Maxtons can transform the original front forks. Might be worth asking for a price
