So the story from the original owner that worked/rode for SE said that only 5 sets of those forks were made. SE was making WAL stuff and getting Hoffman's stuff ready also. After e-mailing Ron this is what he said, which is pretty interesting:
Hey JOE,
Rad, man, SINCE we DUMPED those bars to you, we've had MILLIONS and MILLIONS of calls looking for them---crazy! Soooo those fotoz you sent are the San Diego SE factory parts that they made, kind of COPYING the WAL parts that they were making for us!!! NOT 2hip or WAL parts at all!
Peaceout,
ronw
2hip BIKES
Ron has a very unique way of typing, very similar to how he talks. Pretty cool.
