Frank does make nice parts.  You could also contact RaceTech As they sell replacement tubes and springs and they have a kit to revalve the forks which will transform the bikes handling for the better by FAR.   If you need further info, ask for Matt Wiley. He is their vintage bike guru (works directly with AHRMA racers etc).

I got some for my 550 from Cycle X.  Best price I found and quality chrome.

I got the ones for my CB750 at CycleX as well. Measure what you currently have so you get the correct length!
