And what, pray tell, do you have in mind for that ?
If it's to compare to something else to used instead, be careful.
For example, you can not use 919 legs with F4i tubes and vice versa.

I'm slowly transforming my 919 into a veritable adventure touring machine. I'm raising the ride height about 2" and I'm looking into having FRANK'S custom make some longer tubes for me. I have used Frank's before with great results but they don't have a 919 blank and would need a stock tube to work from. I thought I'd send them a donor unit to avoid so much down time.

Look forward to seeing your finished project.
I remember "Forking by Frank" back in the 70s.
They were the go to place for special lengths even back then.

if im not mistaken... all the 919 fork tubes are the same... the only difference is the top cap.
