What fun would a forum be if we didn't discuss and rediscuss people's questions? Imagine what our post counts would be!

The best advice I can provide to the OP is to search. RC51 or 929 forks are a common upgrade but require a fair amount of work and ~$500 in parts. I'm sure someone here who has done that mod has a set of stock forks they'd be willing to part with.

Depends on how good you are with a wrench, I know Firestorm forks will fit but shipping might be high.

Sorry, but with a new poster, having 4 posts to his credit, of which 3 is questions regarding replacement parts for his bent fork, it's not a discussion... It's hand feeding a screeching baby bird... He can spend 30 seconds searching throught the older post instead of expecting to be fed the answears... Once he's done that though, I'll gladly answer follow up questions...

Anyone remember this discussion?

Ooh, Ooh, I remember this discussion. You've already taken the grumpy n00b hater part. Damn, you always get that part.

If he had searched, I believe there is a set of stock forks for sale right now.

If those are gone, i have a set of straight forks. Haven't decided asking price yet though.
