my forks are pissing me off ive gone through like 3 forks in 3 weeks becuase they keep getting bent off to the side and makes my front wheel all crooked, is there any mod to reinforce this?( i havent seen any around espeacially in the stickies) or is there a better fork i can buy other then Micros forks cuz i dont want to have to deal with shipping half way across the world. all help much appreciated.

Well you can wait for the SR forks to come out, which are going to kick ass. How are you bending them? They usually only bend if you throw your scooter and it drops on it.

well if you legs on your fork are bending then that means your riding way to rough and are either throwing your scooter alot of droping it from bailing so much. but we've all had that problem sometime in our years. If you had any experience in welding or know of anyone you could weld the corner of the legs at the top were it meets with the stem. We do that and they last a lot longer than stock. But besides that try to be a little more nice to your forks and stuff.

i had this problem, i did the same as farmboy and jonny, bent them back. but soon they would get weaker from doing that too much. Im also riding with straightend forks right now :)

I just leave them bent as long as it's not bent that bad.

yeah same, but if it was bad id try and bend it back. but that was back when i used to throw my scoot but then i realized thats kinda dumb cause it breaks it faster so i stopped

What is the thing that bend? I don't understand what everyone is talking about. The legs means the thing which have the wheel between them? I thought about how I can reinforce it before but could not think how.

ok well the sr froks are going to be threadless so the only way for the fork to be locked on is if it has a compression system that keeps it there
