Title: K0 - K2 fork pistons?
Post by: lordmoonpie on January 27, 2008, 09:58:03 AM

I'm trying to restore my forks and the fork pistons are goosed so I need new ones or good secondhand ones. Problem is the part (51442-319-000) is now obsolete so I can't order it from anywhere.

Does anyone have a pair of for pistons lying around they want to sell or some secondhand ones either alone or as complete forks?

Cheers

Can't help you there, have you tried eBay, or the US SOHC forum, or a machine shop ?

Cheers

I had the same problem, searched e-bay, US sites etc. Finished up having to rebuild with slightly worn bushes, and hope to have some made.
Here's an interesting site I found while looking for Honda parts, they do list that part number...but then list them as out of stock!! I'm a great help eh.   They list 51442-300-000 bushes at 120 euro's each. (OUCH)

Yes - well interested in them. Are they exactly the same as the 750 then? PM me and we can do a deal!

Eventually got around this buy buying random knackered old forks from DK until I got a decent set of pistons. Not very economical or time saving to do but in the end it worked....worth having some spares though ;D
