Hi guys. I need to replace both front fork covers on my 1969 diecast as they are damaged. Are these forks correct for a K0 or are they later ones that fit? i.e. K1   Note the cast flange on the left hand one. For interest  I have added an image of the dry biscuit like crud that was on the bottom of one of the covers. For some reason the pictures are very large when you click on them. To reduce the size press down on the keyboard key "ctrl" at lower left and use the middle wheel on your mouse to scroll up and down in size.

Those are correct for a diecast or a sandcast from what I can see. I would replace the fork leg that has the broken drain mount. Thats a nasty problem waiting to happen: fork oil leaking onto your front wheel!

Thanks for your response, Sam. By a massive stroke of luck and coincidence I have been offered a NOS pair, a left and a right hand side,  so I just wanted to make sure I knew what I was buying was correct. I pick them up later on this month.
