stock length of forks KZ1000A? was created by fivestring

Can someone tell me the stock length of '78 KZ1000A forks? Mine measure 30½ from top to bottom. I was wondering if mine has been lowered or not.

Thanks.

If no one pipes in, I have a set off a bike, but at home. Are these measured on the bike, or off? Where, and what, exactly are you measuring?

Thanks for the replies.

They were measured on the bike. From top of tube to bottom under axle.

On the bike, but unsprung (on a jack), mine are about 30.5 inches from the top to the center of the axle. You have stock length forks.
