let me start by saying they are on an 85 250R, but I KNOW they are not stock... so I am wondering if they could be from an earlier R... or maybe a 200X...350X... let me know what ya think all info is helpful!

If your wondering about the forks, a whole bunch of the 200CC to 350CC forks all swap around if you use the triples. Most of the Honda headsets are the same size. And there are fair amount of legs that will fit insided another Honda triple clamp.

IMO - those are 200X triple clamps/ The tubes could be the different ones that will fit in there - 200X, 83to84 250R, SX fits too. It's the fork cap that throws me off. Show the lower leg where the axle is to help identify them.

so that you know... it does have the brake on the right side of the bike, I know my OEM 85 is on the left... I also know that the spacers on the hub do not fit correctly by almost 3mm. thanks for your interest and knowledge

they look like 82/82 250r forks to me. The tipples look like 81/82 250r also. I have 83/84 250r tripples, forks, whole front end, I also have 350x stuff too. I know 83/84r forks fit in 350x tripples and vise versa.

Yep, the 82R triple is the same as the 83 to 85 200X triple. Not sure what leg it is, it isn't an 85R. Show us the other leg....

Here is an 85R

the other leg is plain except for the axel clamp that you can see through the rim from the pic I posted... they are basically the oppisite of the 85 forks... BTW I have an origional 85 for reference

I'll check the width, I remember when I disassembled the R that side by side it looked identical to the 200X.
