Springer front fork ?

I have just bought my 1988 Savage
(still have to collect it actually, it'll be a good 500 mile ride
... hope it won't rain
) and one thing I've often daydreamed about is a "springer" type front fork. I assume HD springer forks from modern bikes can be horribly expensive, so what about alternatives?

I'd love to see how a "springer" front-end looks on a Savage too!!

Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-esteem, first make sure you are not, in fact, just surrounded by arseholes!

I'll have to scan it... This may take a while... I'll try to do it soon, though...
BTW, Roadbike is a lousy magazine, IMO, though there are usually some good sections... They are all about the $30 - $50k bling-bling metric "choppers." bleh

Did a search and came up with this thread...
Has anyone done any research on if/how/what kind of springer or alternative front end can be abused onto the front of a Savage?

www.jeris-springer.com
Looked at this site...seems they could make a custom one. I bet it would cost an arm and a leg though!
