The bottoms seem to be magnesium. They are 43 mm and were to suit a single brake arm as I had to modify the brake locator to fit in my 480. So they are pre '81.

Interseting internals Brad. Look like mag lowers in the pic , def not stock lowers .So not just kitted forks , maybe they are early works with a later Knobby kit retro fitted. Thye look the goods anyway

Was anyone in Australia running an ME in 1983?  I've seen '82 Euro ME480's and I remember one pic from the '83 Canadian 500GP of a 480 with the Mugen head.
