I have a set of trees (w/o hardware) off of my '06 Ss that should work if you can find '06-'07 Uly forks.

I have a set of 06 Uly forks. Less than 5k miles since overhaul.

I have an 06 uly that I will be parting out. I can sell you the forks and trees.

I thought uly was 47mm? how does a 43mm SS tree work?

The '06 & 07 Uly forks are 43mm the '08 and up forks are 47mm. The 43 & 47 measurement is the inner slider tube. The outer tubes are the same diameter on all of those forks.
You can't use the 47 forks with the '06-07 trees because of the rearward offset axle, it makes the front tire rub on the chin spoiler (at least it did on my lightning).

what do you mean off set axle?

This is going on one of my other bikes. Weighs about 560lbs, I need something heavy duty. I think the 43mm might flex more with all that weight.

On the 43's the axle is on the fork tube centerline and on the 47's they moved the forks out with the trees to give the "X's" a tighter turning radius. Then to compensate and keep the wheelbase the same they kicked axle back an equal amount.

Yeah I think I need the 08+ style? What would you guys be asking for the 43's?

I'd take $125 plus shipping for my trees.
