TBH ... If I did it, it'd probably still be sat there in bits in another 3 weeks time ... I thought it best to get some expert help as forks are a bit like black magic to me matey!

Summer's here .... lets get riding ... not fixing! lol

 

That's good shakey.

The beer's a given mate!

 

Dave ... as soon as I can learn to drink a beer upside down, you're on! lol

Always fancied a visit to Upside Downy Land! It looks like an amazing place!

 

If you do come 'down under' give me a pm shout mate! It is a good place. There's a wide choice of climates to choose from and serious space.

Since you're getting a mechanic to do your forks, do you now qualify for Sprock and my 'Lazy *******' club?? It's quite exclusive you know.

 

Yup , Shakey is deffo in the "Lazy ******* Club" Dave.

ya know it was the exact same thing tho' when my fork seals went .....right as
riding season started ....... I just said to myself ..... to hell with this I need to
be back on the road asap ..... so gave the work to Seacoast Cycles near where I work
ran me a buck seventy five ...... thought at that time it was a good deal

time is money and sometimes your time is more valuable than spending a week
fecking about with fork seals after work

I agree with you Sprock about sometimes just getting a professional to do the work. You've just got to be lucky and find the right one.

 

lol .. It's almost worth getting some T shirts printed!

 

I would...but I'm just too lazy

 

Make that 4.
I had mine done in a shop while I was away last Summer.
Tough choice though. Work on bike? Drive 2000 miles across Europe doing what ever the **** I like? Um...... nah. The bike went in and got looked after while I was away.

Glad you got sorted Shakes. Exercised your wallet effectively! Go out... ride.
I've got Blackpool on my radar before long. Just wondering which theme night I'm going to go for! Cross-dressing Ducatti-on-ice night? Hmmmm...

 

Haha! .... You'd cringe at some of the rallies I've been to then??? lol .... Or maybe not!

The one in St Annes I really dont want to miss, is the 2 stroke night. Mmmm Castrol Aaahhhh!!! I love the smell of it! It'd be great if you could come to one of the meets matey, they're a great crowd.
