Marzocchi forks

[muddy boots]

I wonder if you guys could help me. I have bought a Beta Xtrainer (UK) that has a known problem of poor front forks when the going gets quick. The previous owner changed the forks for a Marzocchi set he bought 2nd hand and were apparently from a 2012 GasGas EC250 and had been fitted with adjustable preload caps. Can you identify them from the photo's and point me in the right direction for technical spec such as oil level, seal sizes etc. I found a sticker on one of them with BE2000030?? 29/12 on it. I presume the 29/12 is manufactured week 29 of 2012 and the rest is possibly a GasGas part number?

Without being an expert, it looks like a 45 shiver to me.

I am with the last guy looks like 45mm shivers should be about 550 cc in each leg 7.5 weight 45 mm seals easy to work on
