Here is what the SSS forks look like. Forks caps have brown around the edges and the bottom of forks has a two step pattern. Instead of a single bell pattern like the 05 forks.

I run the '09 450 goods on my '03 YZ250, much better. Tubes slide right in to the clamps, I used an aftermarket top clamp for big bar mounts. I did have to figure out the correct spacer/axle combo though. The earlier clamps have a narrower C to C than the newer big bike clamps. I have an extra set of red APPLIED clamps, what year is your steely?

Front end came as a package, forks clamps and handlebars. Found All Balls has a fork conversion list used that got the bearings worked out the shimming, came out pretty good but need to do some testing to be sure
