Am restoring a 1970 Honda 350 SL KO and would like to buy replacements, as the hard chrome is flaking off in spots. Or if someone knows where I can get mine rechromed please let me know.

Those are a 1 year/model only so replacements are iffy at best. See your Intro, I listed 3 rechroming sources. I may be facing the same issue, haven't seen the K0 my son bought yet.
 
Ouch. Well I guess that isn't really too much of a surprise, the chemicals required for chroming are high on the EPA toxicity list and California is as tight a state as it gets in the US for EPA regs.
 
What are the specs on these fork tubes?
Since its a one year bike there probably isn't much aftermarket, but probably another bike somewhere used the same length and diameter.

I'll have a look if you supply specs.
 
If they're 33mm & 23.5" overall length try these:

If they're 35mm with an overall length of 21-13/16" to 35-13/16 try these CB750 fork tubes:

Mine are approximately 1 1/4" (31.75 mm) diameter, 22 1/2" (57 mm) long

Sent them off to get reground and plated so I don't have precise measurements. Thanks for all the help.
