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. |

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. |
