Hi all,
last night i was "just riding along" and had an accident resulting in a night in hospital and some bent Boxxers:(

Now i would like some opinions on what to do, my options are:
1) Buy new staunchions and fix them, or
2) Sell lowers, crowns, internals, and buy some forks off here. eg. domains, boxxers

What option would I benefit from most? The forks have been great, they are 06 Boxxer Races w/ custom internals.

*Where would I go to find out prices for new Boxxer uppers? Preferrably new.*

thanks,
Jarrad

Is it worth posting up pics for us to see the extent of the damage?
Also how much did you spend on the custom interanls. (Not meaning to sound rude or anything).

Sounds to me like a write off. Get new forks and keep these as spares unless you want to part them off for very little. While it might not appear so, you might have issues with the wrecked set of forks (say, the lowers were twisted also).

The attached picture is not recent it just shows where the bend is. It bends back at about 1 degree.
The custom internals arent expensive, just oil, spring, and some o-rings, which made them feel better.

Is there a 180mm version of RS Domains? How do these compare to Boxxers?
Im thinking they will make the bike a bit more versatile and freeride orientated.

If not maybe 66's, Totems, or Races again...
Opinions?
