Yamaha stopped makeing the bottom ones 12 years ago, but can supply the top one that fits in the alloy slider(shood fix 1/2 the problem A) Am trying to find the bottom ones that fit onto the bottom of the chrome staunchion, they are made of White Metal,& are Teflon coated, some engineers at work reckon they can be turned up on a lathe (duno about the teflon though !!) Or dose anyone know of a set of forks from some other bike that is a reasonably easy replacement for the XJ900 ? Starting to get a bit nervous not being able 2 ride. any help would B greatly appreciated , Thanks Guys & Girls MARK
