Leslie,
r-6 forks first gen will be off a 2000. If you look r/6 forks are used a lot on real flat rack bikes.

Sorry Dude I dont follow flat tracking, I prefer Road racing, Motorcross and Trials are my love.
I just love the look of the street trackers you lads build over there like Pregrids and several others.
Hopefully mine will look simular but have a British look to it....,l

Many use the inverted forks
Racer Too modern looking,
plus I am riding her as a leisure bike Sunday afternoons to Matlock and Tuesday Nights Scarcliffe classic bike meet, and the local racing Cadwell Park Mallory Park and Donnington park.
The upside down forks can be a pain to set up if you get them off a model that is vastly differant to the XS650.
The standard forks with progressive springs are just as good as the upside downies,,,unless you are buying Ohlins and then you need a bank loan

Next weekend the back wheel is going in.

what did he just call you? An old Chinaman?
LOL Dave it is a Cockney Southern/London term of endearment that has made its way up to the north of these sceptered isles.
Comes from Chinese tea, for example when tea was expensive back in time you only gave your family and special friends a cup they used to keep it in a lockable tea caddie (container) apparently.

Hey Pre, I think you and I need to "bone up" on the Kings English
LOL,
Racer if we were in a ale house in certain parts of the UK

I am from a family of Loyalists and some of my clan don't take kindly to remarks about the Queen on the other hand you being Colonists i suppose you can take the piss as much as you like

Leslie, with the correct length that is probably one of the easiest parts you could make.
Racer,
It may come to that , although I would sooner fit the proper item.

Just thinking the brake stay on a drum rear is much more visible because it is below the swingarm vs disc arm that is above the swingarm. Great place to make a individual touch. What type exhaust are yo planing on using?
2 x ARROW Race cans 1 either side
