So, why did the folks come off last summer after a total rebuild of the bike? It seems that I didn't inspect fork tubes close enough upon bike rebuild and the fork seals let go (rust pitting). So I took the bike into my local shop to have them install new fork tubes (Forks by Franks- www.frankmain.qpg.com)They screwed up the job, big time! The numskull mechanic took an air wrench to the caps and stripped out the threads. $300 bucks wasted. Grabbed the bike back, and took it home. Sent for new forks, and had my good buddy, Matthew Wiley at www.racetech.com rebuild them for me....also installing the Gold Tech Valve. Put it all back together and what a difference! Took the bill to numskull and had him pay for the new parts.
