I'm reconditioning a set of GS1100GKZ forks (41mm) and am having trouble locating replacements for the bottom bushes (I think that these are also know as slides in some parts of the world). Has anyone already reconditioned a set of these forks and discovered a supplier of these parts? I would be grateful for any ideas.

'86-'87 750 gsxrs' had 41mm forks and the slides for those are still available from the factory, so are ones' from 1200 maduras, 1400 intruders and cavacades. First gen 600 and 750 teapots (gsx-f) do too. Worth a try maybe? And if they do or, you find any aftermarket let me know please. I have a set of these forks from an '83 on my 850.Last edited by kingofvenus; 07-28-2013, 01:41 PM.Dee Durant '83 750es (Overly molested...) '88 gl1500 (Yep, a wing...) -
Sure thing. I have just asked a distributor if they can supply bushings that measure a little longer than I need so that I can machine them to the correct length. Will let you know the result.
