Hi all. Any one here got any tidy forks for a TY250R (drum type)for sale, as i am looking for a pair to graft into my majesty, Also after a spindle to match the forks. Cheers

Andy, try Ellastone Offroad as they often have Mono parts available.

What are you going to do about the front wheel though? Majesty wheel won't go straight in as the bearings are smaller than the mono and if you can overcome that problem you'd also need to make something to hold the brake plate. Majesty yokes will need boring out to take mono forks.

Best bet is to fit the mono forks and wheel. Mono has a better brake and there is always the option of fitting the motocross brakeplate with the external arm, or even the one with twin arms if you can find one.

Ellastone should be able to do you forks and a front wheel

Then again, whilst I'm waffling away about all this, you may already have a mono front wheel...

Just go mine back together today - cutting it fine for Bootle as it's not even run in yet. I seem to have been in this position before.....

Thanks Woody, Will try ellastone tommorow and yes i have a mono front wheel ready to go. I tried the standard Majesty forks but they dont seem to be up to alot. Cheers

Yes, standard TY t/s forks are a bit soft in the damping and also under-sprung. There is a mod to the damping rods which involves brazing over the holes and re-drilling with a smaller diameter to slow up the oil flow. I experimented with mine but couldn't get it just right so I went the mono fork route.

I tried Craig Mawlam's bike with the modified standard forks and they work very well, with the stiffer damping the soft spring rate wasn't really evident. If you can get hold of him he might be able to describe exactly what to do to them (he was told how they did it by Shirty when he bought up the Majesty stuff)

Will the Mono Yokes fit into the Godden Majesty frame's headstock or do they need modificatio?

That way I'll be able to bolt on a Mono front end complete to mine

The TY Mono uses the same size tapered roller bearings top and bottom in the headstock - can't recall the ID and OD size or depth off top of my head.

Not too sure about the smaller Yams but the 250 Godden frame I have uses the standard TY250 Yam bearings which are the ball bearing type and different sizes top and bottom. Mono yokes won't fit in these bearings and Mono bearings won't fit the Godden headstock.

Maybe there is enough meat in your yokes to bore them out to take the Mono forks, or if the 200 head bearings are the same as the 250 you could fit 250 yokes and bore them out to take the mono forks.

I used the mono yokes as I had a new headstock made as I was altering the steering angle anyway. If I hadn't done that I would have bored out the original yokes.
