Iv been searching for a set of 1980 -1983 GL1100 forks for ages and unfortunately missed a set on ebay just the other day.
Im after the earlier ones without the anti-dive.
In my searching Iv forund quite a few sets from Honda CB900s from the 80s.
Ive found that the spindle will fit and the diameter id the same but I cant find out if they will be too long or not
Can anyone help please?

Re: Forks
On fastfromthepast.com 900F forks are listed as 645mm long vs 604mm for 1980 GL1100.I would say close enough.Just slide them up in the triple a bit.

Re: Forks
I would definitely consider a trade. I'd like a set of the anti- dive forks and have a set of 82 forks sitting on the shelf...
