LOL might be , they have been hanging on a shelf the past year, I went out this morning and offered them up, they are loosely mounted.  I will revisit later and check them out. Thanks

I have ordered multiple times from Yambits, and I am so impressed with their processing and shipping of the orders. The genie is out of the bottle , I decided to polish the sliders :rolleyes: I have about an hour invested in this slider.

spent most of the day cleaning and removing nicks and gouges from the sliders, time to order springs and reassemble. Yambits to the rescue with fork tubes, seals and dust cover. wheels and hub work is next on the list. The engine is almost ready for a first start after complete rebuild, top end and crank.

Racetech springs arrived on wed. was anxious to reassemble forks, however work dictated otherwise. I had time this morning to assemble one leg and am very pleased with the results. There is still one more leg to assemble and then swap out the legs. I am starting to get excited about engine start and first ride.

clear on the forks is dry enough to install.  What kind of suggestions on fork oil weight? Racetech springs only change on forks. Street use only , somewhat spirited riding :whistle:  :whistle:

there are still a few deals floating around, I have been looking for years and finally ran across this one. I ran across it on FBmarket and price was 1234$ and I was put off by the obvious not sure pricing. The seller was a retired fella that had a small engine repair business at home, and helped someone move and was offered the bike as partial payment. He decided he would not be able to repair so listed it to get his money.

Looks like a RD400 fender to me but I could be wrong.
