i agree...
im jus curious what changed from 03-04 to 05-06 forks that make them stronger?
i seen the bolt on bottom that bolts fork leg to the bottom cast piece... is it diffrent on new bikes?

i figured the zx10r would be a bigger bolt or stronger in some way an save me from a concrete sandwich

No one answered my question... haha

Isnt the reason the forks were snapping because those bolts were loose?

Re: 636 front end problems
kyle just get a set of 05-08 636 forks and rotors and be done with it. leave your 03-04 triple on and just put the forks in. you can use your wheel, calipers and triple
