Got them from Progressive Suspension.
Don't forget- these are not the stock forks. They are '95 Yamaha Virago forks, which are 4" longer, and came with the rake kit. There were two oil level specs, one for US and one for UK. When I originally filled them I used the US spec, not knowing they were UK spec forks. The difference was an inch (about 15 cc) more oil.
