Sooo, I got this nifty set of trees with a recent e-bay purchase. They were attached to a '82 Honda 185s but the owner wasn't selling tubes. I would like to know who made these old school pieces (vealmonkey, you can chime in here cause you got the identical set on your trike) but what I REALLY NEED to know is what forks I should be looking for. The triples are bored out to fit 31mm stuff. Thank you gents, any help would be appreciated.

31mm tubes are usually from the older 1980s yz80 . I had a set of NOS ones just like yours but I forget the maker :wondering . Think it was PK racing

31mm should be yz80, I totally agree.

Thanks fellas, yz80 it is. Any particular year I should be looking for? They are far from mint but not TOO bad! I seem to think that the stuff on my trike came from PK Racing.
HI Performance ATC Maybe????? This is 33MM.

Yeah, that was me! Once I make it all nicey nicey I'll post a few pics to see if there's any interest. It's the same rear kit that I have on mine so I can look and see where every bolt and washer goes.
