Could anyone tell me what the stock length of the forks are on a 1981 750h are.This one seems to be over stock length and I have slid them up the tree to the handle bars and it still sits real high.Thanks

I won't be home for a while, but if you don't get an answer before then, I can go measure mine. Did you just want end-to-end?

Oh, and the LTD has a 19" front wheel and 16" rear, which may be another reason it sits high.

Yes end to end This thing seems to be way high in the front.On the kick stand it looks like its going to fall over.

You got it. It will probably be sometime tomorrow evening before I can get to it (literally).

~35" from the bottom of the lower tube to the top of the upper tube. Add an inch for the fork cap.
