I thought they were the correct forks but I knew Albie would put us straight either way.

I have a brochure I picked up from CMW Motorcycles in Chichester dated November ‘94 which was the year they added the 600 alongside the 900 and the 900 in there has exactly the same looking forks with the only adjusters being at the bottom of the fork leg, presumably for rebound only?

It doesn’t state the make but by the look of them I am guessing Showa as I think it wasn’t until our ‘97 900’s that appeared with the horrible Marzocchi’ forks signified by the blue top adjusters for setting rebound in one leg and compression in the other.

1995 remained the two capacity line up until 1996 when the 750 arrived.

Not sure if it’s completely accurate but there is a timeline here:
