anything can be made to fit..

It depends where you intend to ride and at what level

Some clubs local to you are quite happy for you to have non british forks, yokes and wheels, other clubs will put you in the specials (non competive) class if your forks "appear" to be of non British period manufacture.

to get a pair of bulto or ossa forks modified to appear legal, with assosiated yokes and wheel spindle mods will be around £300 on top of the price of the forks if you can find a decent pair.

and yes it is usual to cut the seat mount off.
