I found these Honda forks on CL complete with hub, disk brake, master cyl, ignition switch etc... I am hoping to restore them with new seals, a bit of polishing etc. I want to use them as an upgrade to my 85 ATC250ES. I am trying to figure out what bike they came off of. I of course hoped that they were from a 350x. After looking at how the front axle rides behind the fork instead of in front I can rule that out. Maybe a 200x or 250R? Anybody know any tricks to figuring this out?177195177195177196177195177197177196

It almost looks like a 200x front end to me, but not 100%. If it really is, and that key switch belongs on there, you may have an 87 200x front end if your lucky. If that really is the correct switch, you just struck GOLD! I have seen them bring big bucks, like 400 bux! Good luck, and if it is one, you are a lucky son of a gun.
