Paul Minnaert Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Your le mans has 54 mm in the clamps, the aprilia has 53mm top, 56mm bottom. And it is 40mm shorter. So neede at least, new triple clamps, new handlebars. And in all cases a new mudgard. Because its so much shorther the bike will be more on it's nose. Other option is the ohlins like in the cafe sport/rossa corsa. And I do have one for sale :-) http://www.fastguzzi.nl/sale/ these just slip in, needed is a new axle and mudgard. The rest fits.

fotoguzzi Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 Paul, I will consider yours if i win the bid on this crashed Mille and sell off the good parts. I probably can't bid high enough to win it but will try, next tuesday. do you know if the rear shock would fit a lemans? Of course I could rebuild the Aprillia also.

Slavomir Musilek (R.I.P.) Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I have visited friend in ducati service last night... other posibility from RSV forks are forks from Multistrada or... and here comes the sun... hypermotard 770mm il lenght is just perfect... but you will still have to get new clamps and etc...

Paul Minnaert Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 amen ... yesterday, brand new gold hypermotard fors ran on ebay... missed them... ended up on 705€ Maybe I missed it, but there aren't öhlins forks for the hypermotard from ducati. The S version only has a ohlins rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guzzirider Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Showa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Minnaert Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Ok thats showa, but it it worth to have new triple clamps with all things around that, new brake calipers. Only for a Showa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guzzirider Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 If you want good forks but not worried about the gold bling, Maxton will transform your old Marzocchis- Richard rebuilt the forks used by the TT V11 Tenni and will do the same for you- price is about £400.
