RD07 front fork upgrade

[abyzfr6]

Hi guys.
About two monthes ago i rode into a road barrier.
I never liked the OEM forks anyhow so i had the opportunity to upgrade my AT.
some pics befor the work began.










so i got myself a KTM 620 front.overhauled them.



seems like i had water in my steering...bhhaa....




new XR600/650 bearing





the bottom clap axle is too wide to have the KTM bearing to fit the AT.
so i machine the axle and make it thiner.
after doing so, i had a small gap between the axle and the top clamp.


so i machined a spacer to fill this gap.







top clamp is on







new 320 mm disc


new Givi crashbars




i'm wating to the KTM caliper and a Trailtech dashboard.



thats it for now.

What speed were you doing and what the hell was the barrier made of? You must have been sent flying? How come you weren't hurt.

Thanks guys.
I think i was at about 50KPH.it was a left curve i were out of focus and i rode straight to the fence.it looks like that:


the bike slipped unter the steel and the front wheel hit the vertical column.i fell to my left on the knee and the shoulder.nothing broken.
