So I purchased a used for of a member but not shure the year but when I hold the fork up to mine the used one is shorter did they change the size of the forks from the early years to the newer ones

Kind of a stupid question, but, is the fork extended all the way?

Both forks shorter or just one? The left has the pinch bolt and is longer overall.
