They should fit just fine, maybe slight tinkering to mount the headlight. All the sohc forks were the same diameter, 35mm
The 69 ears might be pricy though as they would be first year.

I would think so. Or a set of universal headlight ears. About $10 or so but you might have to mod them a bit, they are universal.
