Fork top nuts and caps

[Guest]

Anyone know where I can get the non-air top nuts (uk model) for the forks? Trying to dismantle the forks and one of the nut heads crumbled. Dust covers for same would also be nice.

I'm not sure if the diameters are the same but the 80-81 GS1100s have plain fork caps. The fill valve is a common one located near the lower triple clamp and not in the caps. The GS1100s have 37mm fork tubes.

Can you use the air valve nuts and block the air valve? I've found air valve nuts, but no plain UK ones.

Ah, think I've found some http://www.cmsnl.com/suzuki-gs850-19.../#.VBLMHXVdUWM

Yikes, £83 for a pair, inc postage/vat... no choice though.
