new fork tubes from z1
« on: November 18, 2013, 12:48:37 PM »
has anyone bought a set of new fork tubes from z1 parts, and if so do they have the tube and washers/restrictors pressed into the bottom of the forks?  they fell out of my old forks, and when i look online at z1 parts, i cannot tell if they will be installed in the new ones. 

the honda service manual does not show them, but they are definitely there pressed into the bottom of the tubes.

i was hoping to buy new fork tubes, but if they don't sell the small parts in the bottom of the forks i guess i will just buy another set of used forks on-line and hope for the best.  the bike rode ok, but front travel was limited and a noticeable "clunk" happened when the forks compressed.

thanks in advance for any input,

jt

it had been mentioned on this forum that they were closing but I found out that to be not true on another forum.
