With enough money and engineering anything will fit.:) Check lenght of steering stems and bearing sizes. If they match it should slip in. If not you will have to swap stems and make some mods.

How long are those forks/ Are you raking the Z to a different angle? I am curious, because I too have been looking at the USD forks the cruisers have lately, and they seem real long, and at a pretty steep angle as well- if you figure out the trail, and it is about the same as the stock trail as the bike the forks came off of, you will have a pretty killer set up!
