Firko, the OW13 on Tery's site has the exact same forks on it, I got them from Radar a couple of years ago, He has had them since 1976??, I think?, He said the factory had sent them to Him when he worked on some Yamaha team???, or something of that nature?,
I do know that they are something to behold, and obsolute unobtanium, I would just like them to go to the right bike more than anything.

Big risk. starting 1k no reserve when you want 3k firm. Ebay has a bit a down lately with interest rates and the slow down in spending. Best of luck.
