I replaced my bent fork tubes on my 92.
I found exact replacements, not from China.
Velofox
Shipped from Manchester, England
Produced in Germany, it appears.
Very high quality.
They shipped quickly.
No more wheelies...too expensive.

Not same diameter tubes, I'm afraid. Mk1 forks are thinner (but better). 41 <> 43 mm, istr.

Affirmative JPM tubes.
USA $ they were $650ish delivered to Massachusetts.
Their appearance is impressive. They fit perfectly.
Forks reassembled with new seals and oil and installed. Perform perfect. Using Race Tech fork springs.
