Re: h1/h2 forks
Part numbers for H1 & H2 forks are certainly different and the internals also vary.
I believe the actual length of them is the same - H2s should be better as they updated them.
L forks ar too short so you need to put 35mm extensions on the top of them to raise the front end + different spindle size as you know.
I have H2 forks here needing over hauled but need to find if I can get my J2 sets stanchions hard chromed 1st before I part with them - with leaking it has kept the chrome in real nice condition.
Just wish the J2s had leaked

Nothing worse than having an H and not being able to scratch it !
