CB750K-stock length of fork tubes?
« on: January 01, 2010, 08:38:10 AM »
Does anyone have a CB750K fork tube laying around they can measure? Pre 76.  I'd like to know. TIA.

Happy New Year.  Brrrrr!

I have some here. Do you want the size of the overall top to bottom including the lower and upper tubes assembled? I don't have any disassembled at the moment.

No, just the upper chrome tube. Thanks.  I bot some from Franks that are supposed to be 2" over stock, but they look like more and i have discarded the stock tubes years ago. To scratched up to use.
