freshening the front
« on: April 23, 2010, 11:23:49 PM »
Hey My seals are leaking and I need to adjust the headset bearings. Question is do I need a spring compressor to reassemble the forks? Or will I be able to do it by hand? I have done forks before, just not a Busa.
 Thanks for any help

Pretty sure with the cartridge style forks u need some type of compresser to work on them.

It is a ring with a handle that screws in on each side to engage the holes in the top skirt and you just press it down
