front fork innards replacement [what's best] ?

Post by Charles L. »

A friend has a 99 Voyager 12. He just E Mailed me a note saying that he must have his forks rebuilt. I advised him to hold off while i asked here on the forum what the fellows thought was the best to have put in. He'll be having it done at a motorcycle repair shop.
Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks

Best choice would be to contact Carl Leo. Otherwise, how many miles on the forks? Has your friend changed the fluid? There is a tutorial on utube on fork oil change and fork spring replacement. I think also on the AVA website. Most XII have gone to progressive springs.
