Nope. The 2002 forks are 48mm. The 46mm are an earlier model.

many thanks skipro.
it seems amazing that earlier model forks (99-01) have the same part numbers as 2002 but have different diameters.

Thanks Fuzzy,
Are these part numbers stamped anywhere in the forks?

Great site (Bike Bandit).
BikeBandit states the same OEM part number for these front forks (02 and 99).
BikeBandit part numbers for these forks are different as you say Fuzzy.
SO, why do differnt part numbers exists for the same OEM part number?
