Trying to find a 72mm fork clamp to mount a steering damper to. I've fabbed up my own setup all besides this clamp and Road Atlanta is in less than 2 weeks. Thanks in advance.

72mm? I thought everything had 41 or 43mm forks. The quickest place is probably a local machine shop and have them cut you something out of billet. Bring a picture of what you need and known measurements (and probably the damper).

Greg is correct. I believe you have a 43mm fork, and I think the tube diameter is around 53mm or so for your bike, not really sure.

They are available from Storz:

Not the easiest guys in the world to do business with.

They are also available from Ohlins.

Here are their size and part number lists:

Hope that helps.

Yeah I found what I needed. Originally I did order a 43mm fork clamp and it ends up the actual tube/lower part of the fork tube is what is the 43mm part. Oh well, live and learn. Thanks anyways
