Lower triple tree clamp replacement ???sugestion????

dannyrider · 07-17-2006, 11:29 AM

So I got my forks back with new seal and fresh oil.

I m also putting a new lower 3ple tree clamp.

The lower triple tree looks kind of complicated to remove it.
Any suggestions or something i should look for????
thanks.

ok ill ask how are you supporting the bike to remove the lower clamp ???? and taking it off involves removing the upper clamp and unscrewing the jam nutts under the top tripple.

Sin, im holding the bike with a jack underneath the bike.

Wallspl@t, a guy that works at a dealer did it as a side job at his house. $120. including parts.
But i had to removed the forks my self, first time it wasnt that bad.

I will say one thing though, she had a nice grouping with that swing of hers, got the tank on every hit.

Maybe I could bring over a toy sponge or something for her to play with.

... ok, back to the topic.
