Yamaha XVS650 Dragstar Forks

Good morning everybody.

I am new to the Forum. I have owned my gorgeous Yamaha XVS650 Dragstar Trike for 3-4 years now and he is starting to look a little road weary.

I have spent a lot of the winter giving him a makeover to get him ready for the summer which involved stripping him down, mudguards off, sand blasted, powder coated etc. When I took the front mudguard off I snapped both bolts in the front left fork that held the mudguard in place. I am no mechanic and don't have the first idea how to weld - even if I had the kit so I have made a temporary repair by drilling the old bolts out (hell of a job) and filling the holes with chemical metal, re drilling and tapping them and it worked. New bolts holding but it is not the best repair job on the planet.

The forks (both of them) are looking a bit sad/tarnished/road beaten so I really would like to replace them. Problem is I've searched the web and just can't find any dragstar forks for a 2005 XVS650.

Does anyone have any for sale or does anyone know where I might be able to get a pair of forks? Any help or info would be appreciated. Many thanks.

Larry
