    I had been speaking with that guy selling forks for 150 ... he said he would try to help me out by finding out how much it would cost to post them to me ... but he never got back to me ... so I bought the ones for 250 (+25 P&P) ... a much nicer looking pair IMO ... should be with me by thursday, fitted a couple of hours after ... but then I gotta wait for a week before I can MOT the bike
