    I have found a deal for a set of 81 750 seca forks. I was wondering would this be a direct bolt into my triple trees or hpw much would i need to change. Ireally want to have duel disk brakes.

    I know i would need all the brake hard ware like calipars and the larger master cylander.

    You don't really need dual discs on a 550 Seca if you upgrade the original brake.

    I'm thinking you might run into problems finding the right master that will account for the 750's anti-dive configuration. If you want a dual disc setup. I'd go for one from a 650 Seca that is a lot less complicated. Just my 2 cents, good luck, let us know what you come up with.

    I used an EBC full-floating rotor with EBC pads and stainless steel lines; the improvement over stock is exponential:
