Title: Marzocchi fork wipers
Post by: BultacoMacca on November 20, 2008, 02:47:04 pm

I'm searching for some Marzocchi fork dust wipers for Montesa '77 mod. type shocks.
They measure 35mm on the inner dia to suit 35mm fork leg, and 50mm outer to go over the alum. slider leg.
Anybody know where to get them in Oz, I've tried Rob's Rubber Repro's, and Road & Race, but they don't appear to have them.
Mike

I was looking for these a while back.  Apparently they are available from your local Ducati dealer, however, when I was quoted a price of $70 ea, I fainted.  A friend dug up a pair off a Suzuki which fitted just fine, I thought from a dr400.  They were abt 1mm smaller 1nside, but I haven't had any stiction problems.

Mick,
       I shouldn't be telling you this you Traitor, a lot of the early (up to 81 or so) KTM's all used 35mm Marzocchi forks,try them in Perth,ya never know.
