    The one in the pic is from a 2004 Husky TE. Husky used the same gold 45mm Zoke forks from last year or two of 90's through at least 2006. I was lucky to find a complete 2004 front with very little use. I got the triples, forks, wheel, and brake. Bolts right on. It's been my go-to swap for the Swedish models. Have not tried fitment on any other (Cagiva and beyond).

    Keep in mind the stock shim stacks are junk. In fact, it's considerably more accurate to call them sham stacks. But they revalve super easily, they have the "H" down on the fork lug, and THEY'RE GOLD!!!
