just be carfull that they dont supply you with there "own" version as its to long and lifts the front of the scooter up by 25mm it was imposible for me to get mine to fit using there measurments as the bottom mountings were below the fork links :? luckily i was a welder for 24yrs working in a fab shop ,and was able to remake the top mounts out of something stronger as well i am now happy with the way it all performs if you have a disc id recomend with the cost of welding and poss new links (italian ) it could add up to over 200 quid just wanna say thanks frank for the tips o fitting when i phoned even though the kit was NOT his

I use one of Franks front ends & I'm very happy with it.
In fact my next build will have the same. :D

Hi. i had the same problem with the front suspension kit from Scoot Rock, i tacked the top brackets on forks temporary and fitted shocks to get position of bottom mount on fork link using dimensions provided,didnt line up with bottom mount.Moved top brackets higher up forks till everything lined up then welded in position leaving about 6mm gap under fork link.When everything fitted it lifted front end up by one inch (25mm).Apart from that I would reccommend this set up with a front disc works well :P
