Not exactly relevent to this thread, but you've left out the oddball ones Jem.Jem wrote:Italian bikes used pretty standard fork sizes the options were -
small bikes 32mm
medium/large 35mm
occasionally big bikes 38mm
Look for 35mm (this is close, as a gnat's whisker, to Brit bikes using 1 3/8" stanchions)
The Paioli forks on the 125 and both types of 250 are not 32mm, they are instead 31.75mm, or to put it another way 1 1/4 inch!
The Italians tended to fit pretty stout forks. The Honda CBX1000 six cylinder behemoth had the same 35mm stanchion diameter as a Morini 350/500.
