    Please read the Below



    Triumph for their 43 mm forks have used both Kayaba (55 mm outer diameter seal) and Showa (54 mm outer diameter seal) as their fork suppliers. If in doubt just state the model of bike and VIN number when ordering. These fit Trident 750/900, Trophy 900/1200, all Sprint 900, all Daytona 750/900/1000/1200, all Sprint Sport, all Sprint Executive, all 750/900 Speed Triple, Tiger 900 (carburettor), Thunderbird 900, Thunderbird Sport, Legend and Adventurer

    Good solid info there Wayne. Sorry you got caught, but hopefully your post might help others to avoid the same trap.

    Yes Dave, Easy to get caught. Real pain when you have everything stripped, I passed this onto the suppiers on Ebay who were glad of the info as they had not known. They said they would pass it on to their sales team but i will be suprised if they do anything about it. Lets hope, as you say it stops someone else getting caught out.
