    Hello Everyone!

    I am looking for the Chrome Fork "Uppers" or "Inners" or "Slides" or "Arms" or however you choose to refer to them to replace the rusty and pitted ones on my 1982 650 Seca. I have been looking on Ebay, but am still not completely clear on which bikes use the same part. I am seeing a lot of Maxim forks, but they seem to have a single disc brake, and while I don't need the bottom section of the fork, I'm still nervous that the upper section won't fit my lower section. I guess I am hoping that someone here will have a pair that they know fits my bike!

    Anyone have an extra pair of non-rusty, non-bent fork arms for a reasonable price that they want to mail to Canada?

    Thanks!

    I do believe Chacal can sell you brand spanking new ones.

    You might send him a message, or hopefully he'll chime in shortly.

    The chrome "upper" or "inner" fork tubes are unique for the XJ650 Seca models......they fit those bikes alone. I should have brand new ones in stock, RTG..................

    Hi Chacal!

    I checked out your list as soon as I figured out I needed them (I'm putting an order together - you'll be hearing from me soon!). As much as I'd LOVE to put new ones on, there's so many other things that I'm addressing on the bike right now I just can't afford new ones, even at your very reasonable prices!

    I was hoping that there would be some decent used ones floating around out there.

    And that is SO helpful to know that the 650 Seca ones are unique - helpful and a little saddening! Thank you so much for that info - now I won't make any regrettable Ebay purchases!

    James
