Good, I told you it was easy. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T -----Original Message----- From: Mark Ducsharm <[email protected]> Sender: [email protected] Date: Sat, 19 Apr 2014 18:15:33 To: <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Subject: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: FORK SEAL REPLACEMENT
okay update time! notice the enthusiasm. apparently there was no sponge seal. I've read that some people don't bother putting that back. I think that was my problem to begin with. I was looking for something that wasn't there. before I get all existential, I'll move on... Snap ring came out easily enough, same with the fork seal. slid new ones on, punched it with a pvc pipe (inside diameter 1.5 in) everything goes back together nicely. All in all a bit of a messy job at times but with a lot of rags and sense of accomplishing something, The second fork only took about 20 min. A bit better than the first one which I clocked around 4 hours total :) Tomorrow morning my JB welds should have cured (see CRACKED OIL FILTER COVER thread for that mess) and this hawk will be purring by 10am! Plenty of time for a nice long ride tomorrow. Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
