interesting, never seen those before. I wonder if they would just bolt up to a Z50 or if some custom fab work would be needed to get them to work.

I think that would be the best setup for some 30 foot high doubles. Should hold up well.

It looks like a nicely made part. I've been watching the seller's website as he has an inexpensive set of billet grips that I want as soon as he gets some more in stock. Here's a link:

It looks like the forks are available in a 30 inch length that should be a little better for a z50. It would probably still be a bit long, but it would be a lot easier to shorten a set than to build one from scratch.

I doubt they would be a direct bolt-on as they are made for custom built mini choppers, but it looks like they could be adapted to fit fairly easy.

I think they would look pretty sick, so buy 'em
