That's what I thought they looked like.
I have some on my 750 but yours look a little more polished.

The front end is alsmost brand new.  It came from a 916SPS that was upgraded by dealer to Ohlins.

Yup. Same forks as 748-996. The fancier spec ones would have had TiN coated sliders. They work great revolved w Ohlins internals.

The 916 never had TIN shocks, they came out on the 996 models.  These shocks were re-valved and also had a spring change and are perfect for the weight of the GULF Oil bike.

Uh forks... But I don't know why you are telling me.  Dude had question on forks, and non-TiN 65mm-mount caliper spacing Showas (which were standard on the base model 748's and 996's) is the answer.

O my, forks, shocks, 65mm, TIN, 916, 996.  You are correct, they are Showa "forks" from a 1998 916 SPS with 65mm caliper bolt spacing.

I was merely adding more "general" info. Wink

I found out what I wanted to know, they are not KYB's or White brothers suspension or Showas from a Gixer 750.

Quick update on the Gulf Oil Bike.
I decided to fit a fairing and that will be here on Friday from the painter.
I received the billet belt covers from SpeedyMoto and they look GREAT.  Fantastic quality!  See "before and after"
belt cover pictures.
