David Silver repalcements fork tubes

(1/5) > >>

burchy75:
Has anyone on here had any experience with the replacement fork tubes from DS?  I have longer than normal stanchions in my CB750 K1 forks, think they must be chopper parts by the length of them, and wanted to purchase a set of standard length tubes (failing getting the ones I have here machined down and rethreaded - is this an option?).  The tubes I need are the earlier types with the 4 ring grooves at the bottom

Any alternative suppliers appreciated  :D

UK Pete got some for his K0 and found that the bottom section was chromed where it shouldn't be so he had to mod them to fit. DS would not acknowledge there was a problem when I asked him about it and wasn't forthcoming with the contact details of the manufacturer,  so I voted with my feet and got mine from Yamiya, as did kettle738 (Mick)

DS= Made in Italy
Yamiya = Made in Japan.

UK Pete:
Don't take the chance with ds, he has not acknowledge the prob so assume it's not rectified
I bought a pair off eBay a few years ago also same prob .  If I had of k ow they were also ds ones I could of saved myself a lot of bother

Repro ones forsale in the UK are shite, just get the original ones rechromed by Philpots

hairygit:
The ones he's got are oversize Trig, that's his issue!
