look like late 76 /77 KTM MC forks but it's not a KTM wheel it might be a CCM front end as they used the same fork.

 Above the axle they look like KTM Cerianis but below they are not. KTMs have the two Allen pinch bolts. KTM went to Marzocchi forks late 77. CCM also used leading axle Marzocchis. My guess is they are Cherries on a slightly later Italian model of some description.

Bill was thinking Hercules Wankell but leaning more towards Aspes. Good Italian stock like the lovely Val.
