Hi,
Do xj600n Front forks fit an xj600s bike?
Thanks

I think possibly as far as I can deduce the bikes are the same for each year but the single & twin disc front ends had different diameter forks so it would need to be the right version.

I had the face lifted single disc 600 (1998) which I believe had thicker fork legs but only the one disc. Later models got two discs with the same thicker legs. Ideally get the yokes and forks. Be careful to check the new legs are straight.

Be careful to check the new legs are straight. That's a bit confusing CD. Single disc bikes have the same dia. fork legs. They are thicker than those on the later twin disc Divvys but there is no transition mix. If it's single disc it's 40mm legs and twin discs 38mm legs I think. (There dims might not be accurate but you get the drift.....) And yes HRH, Neil was right! (wonders never etc..........)

Nearly right - it's the older model that has the thinner forks (38mm) & the later models have the thicker ones (41mm).
