Hi
got a new project bike TX74
now I had converted my XS2 to 35 mm forks (using the later model triple/t
but I want to make the XS2 back to original specs
and fit the 74 txa forks and front wheel back on the Xs2 with the an XS2 triple tree
(when i get it)
now is there any difference re distance between fork tubes
of the triple trees
simply and
basically want I want to do is pull the forks and wheel attached of the TXa74 and slide into the XS2 triple tree will it work ?
j
sorry for being so convoluted

A problem may arise attaching the '74 tubes to the XS2 top tree. The TX uses common pinch bolts to hold the tubes while the XS2 uses the top fork cap. If an XS2 fork cap will fit into the TX tubes then maybe it will work.
