    anybody offer fork rebuilds?

    Is there any one offering fork rebuild services? I have a set of forks w/anti-dive and compression adjusters. Most places around here dont have a clue or cost prohibitive. Any suggestions?

    Best bet would be to get yourself a manual and rebuild them yourself. Having anyone do it you would have to ship them to will get pricey.

          I did my EZ forks. Not too complicated. I have an extra set if ya wanna check em out before ya tear into yours. Bushing are critical to the rebuild.

          82 1100 EZ (red)

              Learn how to do somethings yourself, it will save you tons of money over a shop. Redoing the forks is pretty straight forward and the crew here can help with any problems.
