erm nope dont think they are it. Its for a TZR that i got from a friend, but he had somehow bodged RS125 forks on to it using threaded bar with a washer welded on the end... imagine a sandwhich with 1 yoke at the top and 1 at the bottom with a bolt connecting the two clamping them to the headset of the frame
