I have looked until I am blue in the face, even here and I don't want to take my bike apart to measure.

This would all be for a Speedy.
Front forks
Wheels
Brake discs
Triple trees

I would like to know what other makes of motorcycles parts will fit mine.
Even with bushings.

If these folks/vendors would put their product dimensions out there so folks could see them it would be a lot better.

Everywhere I look all I see is HD stuff.
So help me If I have to I will measure and look and measure again and post it here so folks can get what they want.
Sorry for the rant.

the reason being is.
I might want to rake the bike 3 degrees in the trees.
I will want better looking wheels (I cant stand the stock 08 wheels).
I might want to put a springer front end on it.(maybe)

I just want my bike to look like mine and not everybody else's.


Any help would be appreciated.

I just was at a site yesturday where a guy put a full Honda Sportbike front end on his late model Triumph (BA,SM,or that other one).
Can't remember HOW I got there, but must have linked off here somehow?
Anyway, his bike was awesome! Bored, injected, first true Triumph crotch rocket I've seen. In his post, he said it fit right on.
If I can somehow find my way there again, I'll get the site for you.
Nevermind, I reread your post, and I se your looking for a totally different look, but I'll still post the site if I can find it for others to comment about "how much they don't like it"
I saw what I beleive to be the BEST looking springer I've ever sen. It's the cover bike on the November 08 issue of "The Horse Backstreet Choppers".
The springer is from "Bare Knuckle Choppers". I especially like the way the front legs bend down low, just above the tire. I love the spring configuration and the rear legs too!
A little too pricey for a getto boy, about $2,300.00 if you want it all chromed (are you listening Roadworthy?), but their special order, any combo of chrome, paint, powdercoating, bare,etc.
Check their website out.

I'm always listening

I think the bike you're talking about is Sweatmachines, here's a pic

Close! I think that one was on the same forum. The one I saw had a gold ano. front end, tank badges, and two (chrome ) tubes on the front down tubes, with a NOS sticker!
BAM!

I like them both, although there's too much shiny stuff on the lower one.
