Title: WTB: 1 good, clean, straight upper fork tube assembly or 2 with upgrade
Post by: charle22 on June 30, 2008, 04:41:31 PM
My right side upper fork tube has a chip that makes the seal leak.  Just replaced seals and right side is leaking again.  I need 1 good non pitted straight upper for tube assembly or would consider 2 with upgraded springs.

Kat FE conversion ??? the freaking GS crap is made of sheite and its got a massive design flaw ... all the blooming forks leak, even ones that just had seals done ...
Anyway ... kat FE available from $200 depending on what you want. I have one set all stock and can be bolted on, with seals that presently dont look too bad, and bearings that also look fine in the stem, with a top triple that I sand blasted ... but its all nice and clean and useable ... no rotors, brake lines and calipers included. No M/c either, though a GS one is useable.
Cool.
