Installed Progressives and new fork seals
|
|
|||
Installed the progressive springs that came with my bike and also replaced fork seals. Really with the help of the forum it was easy. The spring swap was also pretty simple. Just hit the caps lightly with the impact before loosening the bottom tree clamps. While the forks are extended the Progressives slipped right in and a quick twist of the socket with a glove and some chest pressure threaded up and ready to roll. Easy job and such an improved ride!!!

When I did the front Progressive springs, while the fork caps were off I drilled and tapped 1/8 NPT in the caps. Then put in 1/8 NPT plugs. Now if I ever want to change the fluid I don't have to remove the fork caps and release the springs. I just remove the plugs, drain and fill.
