[quote=brianjonesphoto]I got the tubes from Forks by Frank in Chicago http://www.frankmain.qpg.com/ They were about $375 for the pair. The tubes are much beefier than the OEM ones the stock spring barely fit inside. Lead time was about 2 weeks. The guts consist of Sonic 1.1kg springs, racetech emulators and 20wt oil. The best part about the taller forks is that you don't have to cut down the stock preload spaces since he emulator is also 1" tall.

So there were no problems with fitting OEM bushings and endcaps? Did the decreased inside diameter affect your oil fill level? or change your choice of oil viscosity? Many thanks for your replies.
