Yes they will. Bullet yokes are the same spacing and length as Crusader fittings. There are some detailed differences to do with the top yoke filler plugs but if you are using Bullet length/type stanchions you will be ok. REgards, Mark

Just be aware that the Indian factory changed the steering stop design around 2002/3(?), so later bottom yokes will need older-style steering stops welding on in place of the steering lock tang. The older style looks like this:

The later design looks like this:

The Superstar or early Lightning variants of the Indian Bullet had plain fork yokes which would be ideal, unless you want an alloy top yoke or casquette.
