A wee bit of advice please

[Ravenbyrne]

Noticed a small b it of oil seeping from one of the forks on Geraldines bike, so I was thinking that I might have a go at replacing them, and while I'm at it I was going to have a go at the head stock bearing and racers.

Are these difficult jobs to do and are there any special tools required.

Oh the bike is a 2005 650Gs twin spark single.

Thanking you in advance

Brian Don't Play with them IF ya don't know how I might have to come down an smack yer botty!



Forks not too bad to do seals but Taper roller head bearings need a bit of feel to them the Too tight and they'll have ya squeeling like Geraldine chasin ya fer eatin her chocolate! and IF they're too loose ye'll need some new teeth as they rattle back n forward

Not difficult but a fair bit of savvy required???

I don't know yer mechanicing skills? Sooooooo you tell me???

You an Geraldine could go do a fish dash to Ballycastle by yerselves and leave it with me for half a day S' a pity yer not closer folks I'd have a look at them for ya

Hi Jay

Brian's not bad with a spanner, but you could regret the offer..............there's a photo point not far from Ballycastle and we should know our way there as we were there last year

Cheers
Geraldine
