Thanks, Mate! I'm not sure I want to change out the Rickman front forks but I hate that small single disk. Love the AP caliper; hate the disk. So, I've been musing about a possible "temporary" fix. Thanks for the tip. I'll take a look at the Gixxer 1100 forks. Stay well, RR!

200 is about the most you could stuff into an amen rigid without modification

Part of the thinking is, we had this front fender of a rocket three, that would be a really #$%*in rear fender turned around...but the fender was as wide as the outside of the Amen.... You know..n for a penny , may as well be in for a pound..

You should also take not of the hub clearance, a disc and caliper will fit, just not easily
