    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

GSX750ES : Fork anti-dive axis bolt doesn't stick out

Hi,
As you can see in the picture below, my fork anti-dive mechanisms are not the same.
The one on the left is OK and it is easy to put the black knob on the bolt head.
The one on the right seems bad as the axis bolt head doesn't stick out enough so it is impossible to fix the black knob on it.
I tried to gently pull the axis screw but to no avail...
Any ideas ?
 
Just for the record I think that the modulator I have is not an anti-dive type as it has no linkage to the braking system.

Anyway...I managed to achieve some progress :
I was able to remove the cap (see next 3 images).

Unfortunately the lock washer was destroyed in the process.
Even still, when I try to pull the axis using a vice plier, I fill a springy resistance which after 3 millimeters of pull is becoming a mechanical stoppage...
 
You are working on a 85/86 Canadian or European 750.One of those PDF units on my 85 EF doesn't turn either,never worried about it.Just stuck them on the 83 forks I used instead of having to make block off plates.
 
Try here,have to go to a euro site for some of the stuff that didn't get to the US.
 
Thanks SVSooke,
I'll talk to Marcel from the Netherlands. I like doing business with him :-)
 
I made some progress today and I found the cause to the problem :
The axis of the front fork adjuster has a cross pin that was broken and part of it is still stuck inside.
Any ideas how to remove the stuck pin ?
