Put the lower in a bench vice and yank the slider it will use the bushing to slide hammer the seal out. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

Bought myself a 1991 NH as a retirement gift. Drove it for a season to see how I liked it. I am truly in love with this bike. Now that I am retired, I have the time to learn how to do more than change the oil and inflate the tires. Just replaced my chain and sprockets. This sucess has given me the confidence to try another project. So I decided to tackle replacing the fork oil seals. The left was begining to leak quite badly. I'm at the point of having the fork leg off, drained of fluid, spring out, top seal and circle clip off. I'm not sure how to remove the fork oil seal. Seems like a fellow could easily damage the slider if he tried to dig it out. Is this a DIY task or should I put it back together, replace the oil and take it to the dealer? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
