fork seals and suspension
Posted: Fri Jul 20, 2007 9:12 pm
I could not figure out why my bike stopped worse than normal using the
front break. I called a local shop and the guy asked if I had any fork
seals leaking. Well I did about a month or two ago and the oil
saturated the pads and now I could not lock up the front end on ice. I
was reading about changing the seals using air pressure on the KLR Faq
page. Has anyone else done it that way? I am also interested in
getting some of the play out of the front suspension. I read about
using 15w oil and maybe even a piece of pvc pipe to help take up some
of the spring space. Progressive springs is not an option. no $$$
