Default 1997 fork diameter?

Thinking of buying some intiminators, what diameter fork tubes does a 1997 flhtcui have?


I thought 41mm but can't seem to find where I got that number.

He forgot a few years.
I don't see my '95 FLST listed.

The HDF suspension guru! However we also have another specialist, in Intiminators, in the form of Jason Ward, or fabrik8r as he calls himself. He has a thread on tuning them to improve their performance for touring bikes, over in Touring. He gives instructions here, but may still offer sets he has modified himself, which is how I got mine! His secret recipe includes using single-rate Race Tech springs.

Just emailing Jason yesterday, he has a few sets of 41mm left, after they're gone he's not planning on doing any more, fyi.

Jason is getting increasingly involved with his 'Wards Parts Werks' enterprise, making cooling fans and possibly other stuff, whereas he was modifying the Intiminators as a favour, so get in while stocks last! He charges list price IIRC, nothing extra for his handiwork.
