SUNN NOTION 2001

[dilly]

Ive got a complete sunn notion (2001 i believe), needs work on brakes and the front forks need a service. Any ideas?

I either want to know what its worth or where can i find a new set of forks for it?

Welcome to RB, Dilly.
The Sunn Notion was never common in this country, so not many people will know what it was like or a value now. It's a bit out of my experience too, so posting a picture would help a lot. I'm guessing it's a sandy colour one? It was lowish in the range, budget steel tubeset, designed for short (60mm?) travel fork, but will work fine with a longer (80mm) without upsetting the handing much.
At the top of this forum is the "one and only how much is my bike worth" thread - might be worth asking there.
For used forks , trawl the classifieds here or search e-bay.
Good luck!
