Here are the pics of our FE with RE polished forks, brace and mudguard installed this year to try and resolve some handling problems I was experiencing with the standard forks.
The RE forks are uprated from the standard FE forks, the compression spring is visibly much longer and the fork legs are wider. To install the RE forks into the FE the RE front axle and mudguard is required as the FE fork brace and mudguard does not fit the RE forks. We also had to make up a new spacer to allow the front wheel to sit central in the RE forks, I will post the dimensions of the spacer later for reference.
