What fork legs are these?
« on: April 13, 2010, 01:41:10 AM »
   I changed out my forks last year, oddly enough almost exactly a year ago.  It wasn't until taking apart the old ones that I noticed the right side leg doesn't have the tabs on it.  So flipping around the legs to run the caliper to the rear of the leg wouldn't be an option - I don't care about that anyway.  So what bike are these from?  A cb500 perhaps?

Current forks.  You can see the tabs.

And just for kicks, the fairing I'm considering:
Just call me Timmaaaaay!!!
