Topic: need help finding fork lowers....

[jaguar]

i broke my lower fork leg on my 1978 CB750F front end the other day and of coarse that was the last part that needed to go in the box for paint and powdercoating....

i need to find another pair asap

my question is what other forks have the same lowers?  i know that the F is differant then the K because the F has dual disks but what about the fork lowers off a DOHC F bike?  are those the same?  or can it only be off a 77 or 78 F?
thanks for the help

The fender mounts are higher on the DOHC lowers. Your '78 fender would ride pretty high off the tire.

Before I commit, it seems you need lower leg or set. Waller needs fork tube for 78 F.

 I have a 2nd F front end, let me think on if if want to split it up..

Send this guy a email, I just picked up a whole front end from him a week or so ago.  He has at least one F and tons of other parts in his basement.  I do not know if he has them or not but worth a try.

$500?  Ouch.   Is there a bike Barrett Jackson I'm missing driving the prices up?

[karmasic]

call jeremy at northcityvintagehonda.com i saw some in there the other day.

he has a ton of parts not on his website.

what side did you break?  I have a plethora of NOS Right Side fork lowers for a 77-78 K model if it's the same as the F.  I'd sell ya one Dirt cheap if its what ya need. Scoot!

I have a 78/9 front end also that I'll break up. Not sure if its an F or K? Let me know, make me an offer.
