Hello all,

I wonder if anyone could tell me what other bikes have the same forks as the yamaha rs100 with drum brakes.

Mine are too pitted to do anything with for the mot.

Seem to be like hens teeth on ebay.

Bike isnt worth a lot so have to be on the cheap.

Rechroming etc would be too expensive.

Any information much appreciated.

Hi

You could try the forks from an RXS100 - or even maybe a YB100 probably similar.

You may be better off with a breaker buying the entire front end from a bike complete, minus clocks and electrics. Rather than paying out for every bloody nut and bolt to the theiving profiteers on the bay.

Be careful if you just get the forks as there may be minor but important changes between the models but as far as it goes i put a complete 98 DT125 front end on my 81 DT175 with nothing more than a set of steering head bearings and a bit of common sense.
