Sportster front fork model
Hello,
I have bought a Sportster front fork, and the previous owner don't know exactly for what Sportster model is it.
Please see the pictures. Can somebody tell me for what Sportster model is this fork? I need to look also for a manual.
Thanks in advance
Marcel

If the triple trees and fork tube/slider assemblies were original to each other, it's from a 99-earlier Dyna. (Dynas did use those triples up through 2005)
It will work on a Sportster, but you won't have a fork lock and you'll need to use a 99-earlier Caliper.

Ok, one more time 
- Those are Dyna triple trees, but will work on Sportster. You will no longer have a fork lock.
- Those are 1999 & earlier Dyna/Sportster fork tube/slider assemblies. You will need to use a 99-earlier brake caliper or aftermarket equivalent. (Or adapters with later calipers)
