Hello Vincent, can you please post some more pics of how you are installing the works performance (Thornton) coil over on the Brampton’s, is it a special order unit?
FF: Forks Brampton fork with coilover suspension unit.
- Thread starter aluminiumbronze
- Start date
Keep in mind that Thornton/Works Performance shut up shop a while back. No more new ones!
i did put in the last ones than... the new alu part is pivoting over hard bronze "still" bushes.
top one set back for about 2,5 mm, so a bit less stupid force on taper roller bearings, BTW. both closed, bottom Ph bronze,
like nylos ring and about 0,05mm thrust, top with an O ring. Oh and close up the headstock at the rear opening....
Looks good, but once sitting on it's wheels it wont have much travel left in that shock absorber shaft, perhaps 25 mm at best. Remember the angle of the links on a Brampton equipped bike is just as important as all the mods we did for the Girdraulics.
I wonder who made mine? I got it on a NA rally (Mt st Helens) it was from California, Its fitted to the alpabet twin
It has a neat set of mounting plates and studs that enable the existing spring anchor to be retained and does not just rely on what was a head lamp bracket

The Nylock holding the headlamp brackets doesn't appear to be working too hard.
Hi Tim,
I'm pretty sure that is one done up by Robert Watson.
