Mate I have a '92 1100 sitting here, I'll check them in the morning. You're looking for the diameter at the bottom clamp yeah ?

I discovered that 1992 GSXR1100 USD forks are a greater diameter by a couple of mm than the TL1000s ones I did have fitted to my slabbie. So I ended up having to swap entire tripples etc off the 1100 also.

But it's ok cos I made a better job of polishing the tripple clamps second time round anyhow ;)
