take it to racetech he's in Vista I tried calling Shaun at the shop all day. No answer. Left a voice mail. Will try again tomorrow. Need to pull the forks, but I don't have a front triple tree stand. Anybody have one I can borrow. If not, I guess I will just use a jack and some padding. Try tying the clipons to something up above like an eye bolt to the ceiling. I dropped my bike so many times replacing forks. Having the rope or straps tied to the bike makes it more stable. It's no fun to pickup the bike off the floor.

Just dropped off my forks to Shaun for a total rebuild with new springs and valves. It will be a couple of months before I can take it to the track. But I will get a feel for it at Palomar or other twisty location. Next up is too save up for the shock. Was thinking of getting that rebuilt also or spending a little extra to get an Elka. Probably will go with the rebuild.

wala nabang tawag yan how much is it normally, cause I have no idea? One of my fork seals was leaking. Normally to change out the seals and oil it would cost around $200. Since it was going to be taken apart I decided to swap out the springs and valves.

Did you opt for the 25mm kit Ollie? Scot can change fork seals for about 60 bucks with the fork off the bike.

The kit alone cost $1300 plus seal, oil and labor. If you are talking about Scott with the RC51. That guy will never get my business. He did some of my homeboys wrong.

Crap. Took the bike to work this morning. My first ride with the new suspension. Get to work and took a look at the forks and their is fork fluid everywhere. Was supposed to go up north to get suspension dialed in. Now I have to go home and remove the forks again.
