Hi everyone, I'm new here.
A few months ago I bought a cheap XS360 '77. It seemed like a great deal at the time, but now I'm starting to doubt whether or not it really was. So far I figured out that not only a bunch of parts are completely eaten by rust, but also that the fork tubes are bent... Bummer!
As I live in the Netherlands, the chances of me finding the same tubes are next to nothing. Thus, I was looking around a bit and saw some thread here stating that an Aprillia front-end would bolt straight in with an XS400. Does this also apply to the XS360?
If not, what would you recommend? I could get the tubes straightened out, but I'd rather swap them out for a different pair of tubes.
Thanks in advance.
