Yamaha YSL 354 outer tube OD

Post by ithinknot »

Hi all,

Could anyone with calipers and a 354 slide tell me the OD on the outer slide tubes (in the main length, not the thicker-drawn sleeves at the top)?

By way of advance payment, please enjoy this video of red pandas playing in the snow.

Calipers may suffice for your purpose(s). Bore gages and a micrometer are more accurate.

For my porpoise, I will gratefully accept caliper or mic measurements

According to this image, an adult porpoise is roughly 1.4-1.9M... :lol:

Unfortunately, I don't have a good measurement for the YSL 354.

I think ithinknot's autocorrect misinterpreted "purpose" :clever:

I'm pretty sure the porpoise girth measurement is 1 girth unit. :lol:
However, I'm not sure about the conversion factors for either imperial or metric measurements.
