Fork confusion
Posted: Thu Jan 30, 2020 3:10 pm
My 1963 Model 14 CSR has domed fork nuts with an Allen key centre. They are corroded and i'd like to replace them but i am struggling to find any.
I'm told that the forks should be 1 1/4in with 1in diameter threads on the top nuts. I cant get to the fork diameter easily but my existing fork nut diameter is 15/16in so i'm thinking my forks are 1 1/8in. I thought the 1 1/8in forks had hex nuts and were earlier than 1963.
So, can anyone tell me if i can get domed fork nuts with 15/16in diameter threads? Any help would be appreciated.
