Well I got my forks back from the garage over the road tonight, and they've done a cracking job! I need to file down a little more material from the inside, but they filled in the bodge from before, ground the sides down flat again, and charged me nowt, so I can't complain at all! here they are, as I picked them up. Will find a few minutes this week to file the slots a bit more and get them even, so the wheel sits straight.
