Ohlins Advice needed please

Satchel Man · May 16, 2012

I have been offered a set of Ohlins Forks off a 2003 Mille R. My Questions are-

1, Will they fit my standard 2003 Tuono Fighter?
2, Would i need to buy Mille R top & bottom yokes to fit the 51mm - 56mm Ohlins?
3, Will the standard Brembo front wheel still fit or would i need different spacers?

Many Thanks,

Jamie.

they will fit the tuono but i think you need the top yoke not sure abought the bottom and if it has radial brakes you will need 2.5mm spacers and radial calipers if you dont have them (i think thats right)

Hey Mate, thanks for answering :thumbup

After much reading ive discovered the Showa Forks are 53mm top to bottom. The Ohlins are 51mm top & 56mm bottom so as theres not enough material to machine them out a different bottom yoke is required. A 1mm strip of Aluminium wrapped around the top yoke will help to save some cash.

The question is- Where do i buy these 2.5mm front wheel spacers? Tried Ebay but no joy! Maybe Griff would have them what do You think?????
