Ha, they are still in Sweden. My friend bought them but realized that they didn't fit any of his bikes but they fit on my 96 so I will take care of them Smile

I have sent a question to the Swedish Factory Connection dealer to see if he can identify them.

They didn't fit my 96 CR250 which I bought them for but I've since sold the bike. I'm glad they got to Sweden ok.

OEM-Cycle.com lists fork tube sizes for different years. Lot's of other measurements too.

Interesting, do you know anything more about them? I haven't taken them apart yet so i don't know what differs them from a standard fork except the outer tubes.

Looks like very good condition of those! Bottom valve nut looks like mine but have to check if I have the stamp aswell.

Brandon, I know you're a young guy but you'll have to live to 100 to build all these projects LOL You have a killer collection going.

I believe it's possible that similar forks are on the '01 Simple Green PC bike. The caps sure do look similar.
