I need a 45946-94y. Lower leg for my front right fork. After a good thrashing on Memorial day I came home it it was leaking real bad. After inspection I found the lower tube has been galled from brake tourque I assume. I don't really want to change to the showa front end right now. If anybody knows of a dealer that has one please let me know. Thanks you all gentlemen and ladies too.

Yes, I had been watching those for a while. I could not hold back my addiction this morning and bought a set for my bike. Now 3 are left.

I almost posted these last night and decided that Chris only wanted a lower and had probably already seen these. I've been watching them and putting it off as well, comforted that there were 5 on hand. Now you can count me as joining the rush...
I'd call you names but I don't want to get a rock sewn into my seat! : )

The next item I've been resisting is the wiring harnesses. I tried calling and getting a discount while buying other stuff and they wouldn't consider it. With 10 on hand you'd think they'd want them gone!

Roger you are right on. I like many have been watching but I'm not ready to drop that kind of coin just yet. It is just the lower right that I need. I'm not trying to find one for free or even a discount all though it would be very nice. I wanted it soon is all.

Court thanks. I realized I was being a bonehead now after I asked the local harley dealer for a lower and he said they no longer available and if they were the last price was $469.95. So I got my wife to release the death grip on the check book and let me buy a set at a SUPERcheap price. Shipping was only 20 dollars and change. All said and done I got a steal. I'll have to do a little work to transfer everything over but it's not the worst thing I've ever done. Thanks to all for making me come to my senses. There is only three left now.

Yeah, my XB forks are almost too short. I'm gonna play with mounting, drill some new holes in the fender, and modify the fairing to make some more clearance. It'll touch sometimes right now.

FMJ yes the groves are about .010 deep. I may get this one machined I'm not sure yet. I can use the lower left tube and attach it to the right wheel/brake mount. I figure I got another 35k or so until I have to worry about it. I have to pull it apart to get the race tec valves and springs out I'll try and get a pic on here.
