    Are those air or non-air forks? Does make a difference if one is trying to keep their bike as close to stock as possible, plus the air version of the standard forks actually have some other minor improvements inside of them.

      No "air". From a 79F.

        I only asked because you didn't specify what model they came from. The others, the 80G forks, at least *I* knew were air because 80G's came with air forks from the factory.

          If you look at the top of the forks in the pic you might notice the rubber cap.
          Only on 78/9's w/0 air

            How or what do you use to polish them like that?
