Hi

For sale is a set of KYB forks as supplied by the Factory Boano racing team in Italy as shown in link below.

http://www.beta.boano.com/ita/foto.asp?prd=1617

The kit comes complete with axle / spacers / and brake caliper bracket adapter so these just bolt into stock triple clamps.

Forks have 4.2 springs in them.

I'm based in UK but am happy to ship worldwide.

They have been used twice so are virtually as new.

Price £750 sterling which is about half price what they cost me.

I've had to sell my '14 Beta due to a recurring shoulder injury hence the sale of these forks.

Richard, I'm really sorry to hear about you having to sell. I shall have to think very carefully about the forks, very tempting.

Philip,

As you know I only bought them recently .

Upon receipt I sent them to Chris at On The Track Racing OTR whom re valved and inserted 4.2 springs . So all in I've spent a small fortune . The price on Boanao racing web site didn't include VAT.

My original shoulder injury has now manifested into a frozen shoulder syndrome which is going to take a fair while to recover . So I decided to sell on bike and take stock later in year/ new year.

I sold bike within a couple of days on enduro news. It only had 14 hours on clock.

Regards

Richard

With that setup can you still retain the stock Beta front wheel ?

The 1.695 exchange rate puts that out of reach for me now.

Don't lose heart. I had 2 simultaneous frozen shoulders that developed completely out of the blue in 3-4 hours when I first started with Imflamatory Arthritis about 10 years ago. I now have about 95% movement in them and have been riding pretty much every week for the last 7 years so it will be fine. Just try and keep it moving to stop it seizing up and enjoy the painkillers!
