Hi Grewth

I have a K3 which currently I have got one stanchion apart to sort out the brake adjustment screw thread, I can measure the following if it helps you.

Centre of the front axle to the top face of the tube & the internal parts spring length slider length etc

Ken did point out to me there are on the inside of the stanchion by the flat section there should be 3 cast numbers which tells you which stanchion you have fitted I have it written down some where I see if I can find it, The important part is that the slider should be 35mm diameter .

Hi Grewth

The top set of measurements is from a set of CB550 K3 which I have as a spare set both fork tubes sets are 35mm as per Honda CB550 and have a casting number of 341 which I believe is for a K3

The 2nd set of measurements marked Original set is the set that came with the bike which the lower leg casting is bigger unfortunately the casting number has almost been polished away

Hopefully the picture will upload this time fingers crossed

If you want to make me a offer for the rear shocks Don please email me
