Now if they make one specifically for your year bike then yes. If it is a takeoff. It can fit with a lot of work

I figured the brake thing would be an issue, wasn't sure about the bearing thing....

Was wondering if it was even possible.....

so not a bolt on- but the showa forks from 1978 to 2013 went through a number of versions and many of the parts swap easily- you could get lower legs and brake and axle to match the wheel- and you may ( or may not) have to swap internals and the fork tubes...

or buy complete forks and they'll slide right into your triple tree

I think it could be doable without too much work. There are only 2 measurements that come into play. Most important the inside rotor to rotor dimension. The second being the outside of the two bearings. If the inside rotor to rotor measures 6 5/16" it should work.

Easy and relatively cheap, plus it's an upgrade you will "feel"...Use 2000-2013 sliders (same 41mm tubes), 25mm axle with spacers and 2008-later brembo cals and install the Enforcer...No Mess, No fuss

Don't use those 99-earlier brake cals on the Enforcer

An additional option would be to use a 2000-07 1" axle and 1" ID x 21mm wide bearing (better designed bearing, imo)
