Buy the 2015 OEM plastics....I think it is better looking than the UFO kit.

If they are 50mm forks good luck trying to find a place that will service them! I do not believe enzo will do it.

I thought those 50mm weren't available to the public. That means someone illegally sold that bike with those forks and you may or may not get them back from Enzo if you take them there. I may be wrong, but I know of at least one guy that got some special Honda suspension one year and showed up at a National and the Showa guys took the suspension from him.

The 50mm weren't available for a while but everything has a shelf life. There was a set of 50mm on ebay a while back. Only thing I read on them is they are very rigid but good when they get dialed in. Nice bike for sure. More pics.

I'll post some better pics tomorrow. They are 50mm 100% sure. The guy who originally built this bike is on vitalmx (gouldracing25) he built the bike for the glen Helen 2 stroke national in 2013 then sold it to someone else, then he sold it someone else, then i picked it up from him. Maybe Gould will come in this thread and give us more info

He's pretty cool. Your gonna need someone familiar with this stuff for sure to help get it set up correctly. It was hard getting my A kit dialed. I have read the 50mm kyb stuff is a bit tough to get set up. Everyone is going to tell you that the suspension shops are gonna steal your parts and all that good stuff. The key is getting it working for you. The odds of whatever is in those forks won't work for Most people anyway. Most people think you can just throw kit suspension on a bike and it will work fine no matter what. It has to be set up for you or it will definantly be a problem. It wouldn't effect a beginner so much as a more experienced rider as a beginner doesn't understand what the suspension is doing. Cool find for sure. I would be curious to see if it had any carbon fiber or to parts internally though.

Just took the suspension to someone local who i won't disclose and he's going to get it all set up for me. Finding seals for the 50mm forks is going to be the hardest task because the forks aren't available to the public and that means the parts aren't available either. Apparently Jlaw ran these same forks and he might have some left over seals from that. If worst comes worst we will use the 50mm Marzochi fork seals and get the tubes cnc'd to fit.
