Does it matter greatly how many miles the forks has ?. He said it has less than 6k miles. I'm not sure if that is something I should factor in , which charging and looking at prices.

Forks do need service from time to time. Like anything it depends on how hard a life they have had, but mileage gives you at least some sense of how long they have been in service.

Thanks

if they are saying 1100S forks... at that price and the pics are of gold anodized forks... GET THEM, they are Ohlins

now for sure that photo is either stock or someone is not telling the truth.

Here are the  parts number they have :

34420231B
34520231B

Haven't heard back from them yet, and apparently no where on their website, they mention where they located at or list their phone number.

I checked other forks they have on their website, they all seem to have same stock pics.

I'll double check my packing slip...

But domain registrations is far some a solid indicator of geography... though phone numbers aren't so much these days either.

But my main point is they they are real, if you send money you do get stuff.

I called the number, after 3 tries finally got hold of him. He said he will send the pics tomorrow. They are not ohlins, but from monster 1100 and are showa front forks, and fully adjustable.
