Are fork bushings still available? When I went to the mail order site the bottom bushings were not listed.

I recently sourced them through my dealer. They are discontinued, but there are still a few out there gathering dust on shelves. I found one in Kentucky and another in Oklahoma I believe.

Ok thanks, I came across another thread on here that sheds some light on things.

The best way to go is OEM Yamaha Tri-Z bushings in place of the 350X bushings that are disco, you must use the 1985 model only.

I'm unaware if the tri-z shares the same forks, but if it's true, that's a great resource.

I'm unaware if the tri-z shares the same forks,...Not the same forks, but rather the same diameter forks, 35mm.

They are in same dimensions for those bushings only and they were both made Showa.
