whats the most common method of the way the steering stem is fixed to the fork tripple clamp? I see that fork legs are bolted but is the stem? or is it welded?
Im gona get a scooter front end off ebay, forks disc brake stem, handlebars etc. and try to fit it.
Im sure its tricky whatever but im going to have a go anyway.
I love the pain!

fork stem
there is no tripple clamp on a spree is there? as the fork U is welded to the stem which goes up through the frame. they are lead link dampers?
What I want to do is take proper damped/sprung forks off say a piaggio zip with disc brake etc and fit that to the existing frame?
If you get what i mean.

stems are welded to the triple clamp,if your current handle bars are held on to the stem by a "nut over the top" and you want to use common straight leg fork setups-bolt thru the back/front ,you will need to either cut the neck down or mod the bars to use the them.This is based off all honda stems/triples that I have/seen
Remember,everyone is human,even if there stupid!

I got hold of a pair of forks, havent offered them up against the frame yet so Im not sure whats gona be involved, although Ive just realised that the front wheel (I got a whole front end) is 13"
So now ive got a 13" wheel on the front and a 10" on the back, are there any issues I should be conserned with apart from the fact that this is going to look plain stupid!
