Default Fork Fitment

Since I bought my '88 600 about a year ago, I have always noticed that the front end doesn't quite line up right. The frame isn't bent, neither is the swing-arm, but when I look down at the front tire, it is off to the left, offset from the center of the bike.

I figured it was either the Triple or the Forks, purchased a used pair of both off of ebay, installed the new Triple with no luck, no change. I am still waiting in the forks, hopefully they are in good shape.

Are there any other forks that will work with the hurricane, or does someone have a pair that they know are straight for sale?

Getting very frustrated with this problem...any advice or suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks for the help

I am also curious if theres an bolt in upgrade out there. My fork seals are blown and last time the dirtbikes cost 170 to get done. So if i could find some used forks that are better that be nice.

JC6711: If seals are your only problem, you can buy new ones for $20 and change them yourself. Not too challenging, just follow the manual...
