XS400 Addict
If I recall correctly the XS400 has 33mm tubes, yes?
I've done some searches on the forum and all I'm finding is swapping triple trees or converting to inverted forks. I don't want inverted forks, just beefier forks with a larger diameter.
I'm thinking boring my factory triple tree out and swapping in larger tubes and lower forks. I'm thinking something in the 40mm range, depending on what is out there on the used bike market for a reasonable price. Only real requirement is I want dual disc brake mounts. I'm sure I'll have to do some swapping of bearings to get the front wheel to fit correctly (18" mag).
Has anyone does this? If so, what tubes did you use?
