What forks are these?
« on: December 13, 2011, 02:39:48 PM »
Bottoms are dead ringers for 750F2/3, but the caps have recessed allen sockets for removal. Tubes are 35mm, and all 750F2/3 caliper mounts fit perfectly. I found them when moving my garage, but cannot remember ever picking them up.

Thanks if you know!

My educated guess is 1979 and later CB750F and CB900F models.............

I'm thinking in 82 they got bigger than 35mm. so 79-81?
