As Rob says all the tubes are 36mm diameter , however Z1R/A2 fork tubes although still 36 diameter are different to all the others - Z1 to Z1000A1 .

Look at the fork bush under the fork oil seal.
If there's a wire circlip they are Z650.
If no circlip they are Z1R.
The 650's chrome stanctions are also shorter.
So probably easier to measure the length from the spindle center to the fork top to confirm which they are.
