Fork removal/font paddock stand.

Discussion in 'Technical Help' started by Nelson, Nov 25, 2013.

  1. Will one of these type o' stands elevate the bike enough to remove the forks?

    Yup - there's a hole in the clamps.:upyeah:


    Cheers

  2. Only if your bottom yoke has a hole in it. The 916 oem doesn't for instance.

  7. Got one lined up to borrow, just wasn't sure if they got the bugger up high enough to slip the forks out.
    The sucker of cocks that sold me the forks neglected to metion the leaky seals along with the other issues!

  8. Got ohlins then...they all do that sir! Do some research, as some recommend a non ohlins seal which allegedly lasts longer

  15. If it lifts the wheel off the ground, it's high enough to get the forks out. :wink:
