Do any other front forks match the 1985 350X front forks? Direct replacement.

I could be dead wrong but last I knew 250R had the largest forks of all the racers and that 350X had the same diameter as the 200x.

Maybe concerning just Honda's racer models.

Not that it really matters for this topic, but the 86/87 Kawasaki Tecate has 41mm forks. 85/86 250R & 86 Tri-Z are 39mm.

ooops skippy and dirtcrasher are partally wrong.

83/84 250R's had 35mm forks with trailing axel and 9" travel.
85/86 350X had 35mm forks with leading axel and 8" travel.

wanna know a MR ATC secrate...take the 83/84 250R tubes and damping rod and install them in the 350X lower sliders. now you have a 1" more travel on your 350X.

and dirt..the 200X has 33mm
