What forks do I have?

93 model KDX250SR and I dont have the blue forks (dont know if the previous owner changed them). Are there external part numbers anywhere that I can verify what I've got because they are leaking pretty bad and want to order some seals. I know I can measure the lower shaft, but without destroying the dust wiper how do I get an accurate dimension of the upper. I am trying not to tear them down completely yet as replacement parts may take months to get. Pura vida.

Those are stock forks. Don't know if that helps :neutral:

I guess I am doubting because the few SR models I have seen all have had the blue forks. :hmm:

The lower tube is 43mm. I am not sure of the ID of the top tube.

I'll bet those are stock forks. I have seen several with the blue anodizing polished off.

Looks like stockers to me. Seems like mine were stamped on the inside of the bottom part of the fork. Where the axle bolt goes through. I think it said D1, which is my bike(91' KDX 250). Not positive though.

I'll scrape some of the oily grime off the lower area and see if I can find anything. I have pretty much looked everywhere except that area and on the inside of the tubes.
