'00 750 Dark fork size

[bdfinally]

Ordering new seals and dust covers from Race Tech and they have the bike listed as 40mm Marzocchis, but I know for a fact they're Showas. Still 40's or could that be different too?

Thanks

If you know they're Showa's then order Showa parts.

Got a '00 M750 dark right here, has 43mm Showas.
And a '99 M750 dark with 43mm Marzocchis.
And a '98 M750 that *had* 40mm Marzocchis.

So I'd say 43's for sure.

Told them that Nate, but they put it back on me. Ran into the much the same problem when I ordered fork spring couple of years ago..."our system shows 40mm Marzocchis on that bike"

Thanks Dog, 43 it is!

Ahhh, now they need the height. Anyone have an old one lying around?

Weird thing is in the actual Ducati parts manual the forks are shown with showa written right on the lower. Will these seals be substantially better than OEM?

They're probably made by NOK anyway.

Went through a couple take-off seals I had saved for reference.

The seals are 11mm high.

For future reference, 43 x 54 x 11.

NOK BR1922H KS6-43.
