I have new tubes for 35mm Betors (and Marzocchi and Cerianis) and 32mm for that matter.

I am in the UK, so airmail postage wont be cheap.  I have 2 kids so wont be needing yours thank you, but do you have a good looking wife or girlfriend perhaps that is open minded to all things.... including dirt bikes?  I could be interested in a trade.

failing that you can just buy them, pay the postage and I'll get a set off to you.....

OK Jerry there are six of those 560mm non-tapered tubes and they all have some pitting and/or flying rock damage in the region just below the lower clamp knurling. With Alpina/Sherpa T type sliders and standard travel they would work fine because the pits are above where the seals run, and the tubes look perfect until you get up close with reading glasses.

Jerry,

I have some 35mm betor forks w good chrome that may suit you. They have the long straight sliders like you have that give over 200mm travel. I'll try to see how long the stanchions are.
cheers

Without pulling these forks apart, the stanchions are about 605mm. Have Goki-style air fork caps
