TAKING A DIVE.........

imported post

LOOKS LIKE I'M TAKING A DIVE, I'M NOT TALKING SPORTS HERE, BUT RATHER, FORKS. FORKS AS IN MY FRONT END. ONLY 53,000 MILES, BUT TIME HAS TAKEN ITS TOLL ON MY FRONT SPRINGS. JUST LEANING FOWARD IN THE SEAT MAKES THESE SPRINGS ALMOST BOTTOM OUT !!!! HEAD BEARING NEEDS ADJUSTMENT OR REPLACEMENT TOO. JACKED IT UP AND THERE IS NO TENSION LEFT TO RIGHT AT ALL, SHE JUST FLOPS AROUND. I'M LOOKING FOR SUGGESTIONS AS TO WHAT TYPE OF SPRINGS TO PUT IN AND ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD DO WHILE I AM IN THERE,LIKEFORK SEALS, THEY DON'T LEAK RIGHT NOW, BUT I'M ONLY GOING IN ONCE, I HOPE. I AM NOT A VERY AGRESSIVE RIDER, BUT I DO LIKE THE TWISTIES. I RUN E3 TIRES IF THAT MATTERS. THE P.O. ONLY HAD 24,000 ON IT, SO I WOULD VENTURE TO SAY THAT NOBODY HAS BEEN IN THERE YET. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT MY DOWNLOADED MANUAL, A GOOD AMOUNT OF PAGES TO PRINT FOR THIS ONE. WELL, IF ANYONE HAS ANY TIPS, POINTERS, ADVICE, I AM OPEN TO IT ALL. I WOULD LIKE TO ORDER ALL THE PARTS THIS WEEK, SO IF THERE ARE OTHER THINGS NEEDED.............PLEASE, HELP ME SPEND MY ALLOWANCE. I SHOWED THE WIFE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I LET GO OF THE HANDLEBARS AT 35 AND HIT A BUMP..............INSTANT TANK SLAPPER.....AS SOON AS SHE CLEANED OUT HER PANTS, SHE SAID.........GET THE DAM THING FIXED. KINDA FIGURED THAT WOULD CONVINCE HER..........IT WORKED QUITE WELL
