I finally installed my new springs and emulators :) they are aswome. i can feel the road better and when i stop my bike no longer feels like the front wheel fell off :thumb: . thanks for the tips everyone gave me earlier, it helped alot. i didnt need to take them in for an air guns help to remove the damping rod but I did need to remove each side one at a time and turn upside down so my buddy could put pressure on the spings inside and allow me to loosen the bolt. but anyway thanks :cheers:
