Great video showing how.
Remoov the old ones and put in new ones
they shouldn't.. you need to replace the fork seals
To replace fork seals on a 1968 Triumph 650, you need to remove the front tire so that you can access the forks. The next step is to loosen the clamping bolts where the forks connect to the frame. Use the right amount of fork oil required in the owner's manual. Replace and tighten the forks.
Having problems with the brase bushing, cannot slide forks back in, HELP!
the front fork oil leval is to be set at 130mm from the top of the fork (air gap)..with the fork spring out ..and the fork fully collapsed ....
Remove wheel, fender. Remove Allen bolt at bottom of fork with impact wrench, it usually will not come loose, if you are trying it by hand unless you stick the special tool down into the top of fork tubes. (I use a broom handle), remove dust seals on fork legs, remove circlip, carefully remove oil seals, replace them, and reverse procedure for reassembly, add oil to fork tubes. Bubba
with spring out, fully compress and fill fluid to elevan millimeters from top off inner fork tube.
To add fork oil to a YZ 125, first, ensure the bike is stable on a stand and the front wheel is off the ground. Remove the fork caps and drain the old oil by inverting the forks and allowing the oil to flow out. Once drained, use a measuring cup to pour the recommended amount of new fork oil into each fork tube through the top. Finally, reinstall the fork caps, making sure they are securely tightened.
Yes they can. I just lowered my daughters 1997 YZ 80 with a duvol shock link and by installing bar risers sliding front fork tubes up.
Fork
To change the fork seals on a Suzuki Bandit 1200, start by removing the front wheel and brake calipers, then detach the forks from the bike. Use a fork seal driver tool to carefully remove the old seals and clean the fork tubes. Install the new seals, ensuring they are seated correctly, then reassemble the forks with fresh oil. Finally, reinstall the forks onto the bike, reattach the wheel, and ensure everything is tightened to the manufacturer’s specifications.
15.1 - 15.3oz. I just changed out a set of fork seals on mine this weekend.
