Swiss Toni Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Anyone ID these forks? 43mm stanchions x 732mm long, 20mm axle. Inside of legs (nr mudguard mount) is cast 8255-L & 8255-R. Left and right, obviously. Yokes are 205mm centres and have X8591 cast underneath. I thought they might be 750 J/K, but on looking at the fork chart, J/K's are 43mm x 556mm long! Are they even Suzuki? Quote Link to comment
Captain Chaos Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 1100K I'd guess 1 Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 1100K/L come out at 780! Bit of a dilemma? Quote Link to comment
Captain Chaos Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 RF900 maybe? Not B12 because fully adjustable. Is the caliper bolt spacing 90mm? Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Yup! It was sold to me as B12. I now know it isn't. I also got a B12 front wheel with it, but I now know B12 has straight spokes. This one hasn't! Edited January 20, 2016 by Swiss Toni Quote Link to comment
Captain Chaos Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 top yoke looks very much like a 1100K one. RF top yoke is completely different. Quote Link to comment

Swiss Toni Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 Well...you better have a word with Mr 7/11. It's his chart! Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Couple more. Just had a look at RF900 forks on eblag, and the threaded side for the axle has an offset. And...those threaded holes in the top yoke? I thought they were home made for risers, but strengthening bosses underneath prove otherwise! Edited January 20, 2016 by Swiss Toni Quote Link to comment
Captain Chaos Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) those threaded holes in the top yoke are for mounting the clip-ons. They are above the yoke on 1100s, unlike 750s. Pic of bottom of top yoke? If it has 4 threaded holes for mounting the clocks, they are 99% sure 1100K. Edited January 20, 2016 by captain chaos spelling misteak 2 Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 Last one, for the time being! I'll have a look under the top yoke tomorrow cap'n. But...as you'll see by the latest 'photo...732mm. How about 750 legs (but there's no 750 legs that short on the chart), and 1100K/L yokes? Have to be tomorrow for 'photo. Bastard thing won't let me load it! Quote Link to comment
Rene EFE Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 11K, without question. Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 Last two! Quote Link to comment
Jaydee Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Looks like the 11K front end I have sitting in the garage. Check the fork top centers, 11K are 205mm apart. 732mm fork length sound about right. Quote Link to comment

Swiss Toni Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 Jay, if they're easy to get at...would you mind measuring your fork legs for me? I will be getting rid of them shortly, and don't want to make out they're something they're not! I need something longer, to make up for the 810mm of the ET. Quote Link to comment

Just measured them, 750mm'ish from axle center to top of fork (not including preload adjuster) Yours might be 750K then 20mm shorter???? Quote Link to comment
Captain Chaos Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 the top yoke at least is 1100K, maybe the rest is from a 750J/K Quote Link to comment
Jaydee Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Same top yoke as mine. 750 yoke has c+ 3 minutes ago, captain chaos said: the top yoke at least is 1100K, maybe the rest is from a 750J/K Yeah, identical top yoke to the 11K one I have. Could be 750 forks with 11 yokes. Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Ok boys. So, it's 1100 yokes/750J/K legs! Thanks for your input! Quote Link to comment
