Does anyone have access to a Duolever fork? I'm looking for the length of the fork from the axle centerline to to the top of the main fork.

"Main fork" as in the cast stanchions? I have a K1300GT and a K1200R, same basic Duolever, and am able to measure them. The K16 uses a version which will have slightly different dimensions.

Approximately 55cm (21.5") from centre axle to top casting edge of the stanchion, but add another 15 or 18mm from there up to the edge of the machined surface where the ball joint resides, which is the overall length. These measurements are taken which respect for the various curves and panels being in the way, so may vary.

Thanks for those measurements.
