Hello everyone, Does anybody know if you can take a 2008 speedmaster set of forks on put them on an 2006 America frame? The frames are the same right? Thanks for all your help, Bob

you can certainly do that, yes


Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

Are the brake master pistons size different, Spdy vs America? Anybody know definitively? BBandit shows two different part #s per same year, 2005.

So the speedy master pushes more volume, did I get you right? In a panic stop, I have locked up my front wheel riding my 06 Spdy, hard to tell your hand to ease up, when you're determined not to tangle up in a multiple car crash right in front of you, going 75MPH. I'm all in for ABS to over ride involuntary adrenaline, if it's ever offered as a upgrade.

My grand daughter has amniotic band syndrome (ABS) I always joke that she has anti-lock brakes when I hear someone say she has ABS.
