Dude - your fork tubes are 41mm - right? I dont know the effect with your wheel gear you have, but find or buy 98 to 05 Super Hawk fork lowers, graft to your upper tubes and the calipers will mate up. (Albeit with some minor grinding.) Thats exactly what I did for my 5th gen. Check delink link below. (Of course the alternate is to snag an entire fork assembly. Sounds like your an Ebay guy.)

Other wise youll have to design some funky adaptor brackets and your gambling on whether they will be strong enuff or be able to handle fatigue issues.
