I am going to have to do the fork seals on the bike but the problem is the forks slightly pitted ... And there is a fair few rust specks up hight on them... Whats the story with getting the pitting removed good idea or bad.. Have been told just as handy to pick up new ones.......... manlys in ashbourne do the grind and replate for bout 80 per leg , new tubes are bout 110 per leg new in horsepower . |

The fork stantions are the 2 stick like yokes the front wheel is fitted to. The top part of the yoke is like a telescope which goes in and out of the bottom bit. When the bike isn't properly cleaned the top bit gets rusted and gets pitted. As it goes in and out of the bottom bit it damages the rubber gasket at the top and causes oil to leak. This is very dangerous because it affects the handling of the bike in a big way. A damaged rubber is as bad as it gets and has caused many a young lad and lass a worrying time. |

Whats the story with getting the pitting removed good idea or bad.. Have been told just as handy to pick up new ones.......... To clear Rust oil or spit on tinfoil and rub hard will rid your chrome of surface rust and resurrect your chome again, I remember my dad had me do that when I was a kid on the spokes of my push bike, and it worked too. as for Pitting get milled and recoated as new seals on pitted surface is waste of time and money.
