sr fork weighs a titload but is pretty strong
strikers are pretty light and hold up pretty well,
sr for intense riding
striker for anything that isnt jumping 20 sets

well if i remember correctly im pretty sure striker is around 15 or 16 ounces and the old SR forks were 18 or close to 20 ounces? so imo not a big weight difference. Its more about if u think ud need the extra side support from the senior or if u like the sleak look of the striker. Another thing to consider is the striker has 9.5mm offset and the senior has 10.5mm of offset.

Would it weigh down the front of my scooter alot? Just don't want to get it and not like it. I just <3 the look of them.

Haven't rode a SenioR much, but I've never heard bad reviews.
It really comes down to witch one you like the look of more IMO.

Im still running an old sr v2.2 fork, and its holding up strong. Its made of DOM tubing, so its heavier and and tad bit weaker than chromoly. It doesnt weigh down the front end at all, so I would say go for the senior. And judging from the gif pic in your sig and some videos ive seen of you, you should definately get the senior

I think you just helped make my decision :)

Only reason i'm unsure about the weight at the front is that i rode a pair of SOA forks a while back, (IN THE PICTURE BELOW) and they were made out of steel, Don't want the weight to get annoying.

I wouldnt even worry about the weight. It will make very little deifference. those SOA forks have way too much metal to them. The Senior fork only has the necessary metal to make a bombproof fork
