Hi all,my friend and I were uot for a ride about 4 weeks ago unfortunately a car turned right across us and my friend had no chance and collided with the side of car, he ended up in an ambulance walking wounded, now my question is does anyone have or knows of a complete front end for said bike , and secondly is the standard bullet front end the same except of course front mudgaurd witch is an alloy item, i ride a standard bullet sixty five and the front end looks the same to me,we need headlamp cassette, bottom yoke,forks and front mudgaurd thankyou all in anticipation, MIKE

It is usually the fork tubes that bend, it isn't a massive job to rebuild the forks with new tubes. I would have a good look at the frame under the tank before you start spending money, the top tubes can bend if they are hit hard enough.

Hi,complete front ends will interchange. If you decide to repair check the lower fork clamp is still parallel with the top, bent fork legs can twist it. Vince

Shouldn't the car drivers insurance company be buying you new ones anyway?
