Thanks for the replies guys. Glad your liking what you see!
Some minor progress today, fork seals. Old ones were sealing ok , but were very fragile once i started to remove them.
Out come the springs and the dampeners, as well as some 30 year old fork oil....
Pull the old seals. I remembered this trick i read a while ago. I placed the new seals in the freezer about an hour before. Coated everything with some new atf and they slid in with a few taps on the race.
Now I still have one issue. The clymer manual i am using tells me to consult "table 5" for the quantity of fork oil in the forks. However, table 5 says no such thing. Anyone (I'm looking at TOOLS here
) knows how much fork oil they take?
