    I am after a pair of replacement forks for my RR4 ... have checked ebay and gumtree but as I have just joined here, I thought it would be worth asking ...

    I don't have any but always on eBay so can keep an eye, are you looking for stock or aftermarket ones

    I've owned the bike for nearly 18 months now and it has spent the best part of a year (in total) off the road ... it passed its MOT last year with no problems but this is the first time I've had the front wheel off the forks ... as far as I know, the pinch bolts haven't been touched
