For my '93; I cannot find the fork diameter in any of the forums Tech Tips or the service manual. I'm trying to figure it our so I can purchase the proper fork seal driver. Any assistance is appreciated.

Re: Fork Tube diameter question '93 Voyager
you will need a 41mm driver, the motion-pro part number is 08-0123. i have used one of these for years on hundreds of voyager xii forks........carl

Re: Fork Tube diameter question '93 Voyager
Or you can be inventive and buy an 1 1/2 PVC coupling, remove the butt ring on the inside of the coupling and you have a perfect fit bushing/seal driver. The coupling will side up/down on the fork tube with just a little clearance to spare. Tap the bushing & seal down.
