350 Fork sliders wanted

Now I've dismantled both forks I've now found both sliders badly pitted, the cost of new sliders and rechroming seem to be very similar , so in the vain hope someone out there has a decent pair I'd be interested in them.


35mm in diameter and 605mm long (I may be out slightly as I just used a ruler to measure this roughly)
There is a set on ebay but these are stated to be 580mm long and I dont know how much shorter I could get away with and what the drawbacks would be.
As far as I can tell the 350 models and 500's were the same, though if I'm wrong then do let me know

Hi,
You can try Allbike Engineering in Greenwich, London. http://www.allbikeengineering.co.uk/index.htmlThey list Morini stanchions, but their website hasn't got prices.
Others on here say Ducati Pantah stanchions are the same, while Allbike say 5mm shorter. 5mm is neither here or there in reality. Wemoto list Ducati Pantah tubes (Paolo Tarozzi) at £99.98 inc vat each, while Philpot's in Luton (http://www.pittedforks.co.uk/) will rechrome/regrind for £156 (probably +VAT).
All prices are +P&P.
Hope this helps,
George.
