WTB - Fork, straight, either one, or just male slider
Any year. I need it straight with no nicks/scratches. These are for Stumpy's forks which have some flaws in 'em. Honda is on nationwide backorder for the male sliders so we thought we'd try the forum.
Thanks,
Thanks,

I have accessed the parts but only through an "all Honda" dealer and they want a mint!

It's a male slider. Symantics. Does the male part slide into the female part, or does the female part slide around the male part???
There is a squirrel in a tree. You try your best to chase the squirrel but when it comes into view the squirrel moves opposite of you on the tree. Are you moving around the squirrel or is the squirrel moving around you? If you'd like we can move this to the "Everything Else" forum and discuss it in a more pragmatic manner?
Yeah, that's what I thought.
FWIW, Honda calls it "pipe, fr. fork".

Let me just say this “I do 99% of my own work" did it for a living until I burned out on it. I did not even change my own oil for like 4 years. I like it the right way which may not always be my way. Education is a wonderful thing but you need an open mind in order to become educated. I trust the man or he would not be doing work that I could only do a half *** job on. It’s not my way it’s his way he has the education not me I have the open mind to humble myself in the quest for speed at the track from a better handling bike.
But that’s just my 2cents worth.

Here are some pics the tail section is just in place so I could see if it would all fit. Still have to round the inside or underside to make just a little more room then remount all the bike electronics pluse my stuff heads up display raidar/laser detector and if I can fit it I have a laser blocker.
