Gentlemen-
The forks on my project bike are pitted and unusable.
Has anyone got a set of forks available that are in good shape?
Thank you!

Gentlemen-
Is it possible to fit a K1200 engine into the frame of a K100 or K1100? I'm toying with the idea, and have read that this has been done before.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
