Hey I found some fork tubes for a great price on mikes xs site. Will the xs650 tubes be the same? I know the bikes share a few parts.
Thanks
Chris

Forking by Frank is also a great place to get fork tubes. He can do them longer or shorter than stock and has them for most bikes.

He doesn't have a website with prices so I'm not sure. I know they are affordable. 847-475-1003 is their number. To quote their website
"We manufacture motorcycle fork-tubes. We carry past models from the 1950s through today's models. We stock over and under and stock lengths. There is no other after-market manufacturer of German, Spanish, or Japanese fork-tubes. We will ship worldwide.
