Hell yeah. I used PVC on the last 2 set of forks I rebuilt. Why pay $50?? Good job!

Even though I have a Gen 1, I went with 04 R1 forks and couldn't be happier. I made a spacer that is listed on this link. I re-used the Fz stem, pressed it out myself, and added R1 tree's, axel, brakes, SS-lines and the fender. R1 Fork Conversion Guide in TECH & MODIFICATIONS Forum

I have the same Drc tool listed above. Without a doubt it is one of the best, innovative tools that is a must have for your garage. I put a 530 chain on my FZ and it was a breeze. Make sure you read and follow the directions. The pins are easily bent.

Here are the directions on installation. Dunno if there will help or not. Pat's Motorcycle Page Why do they need to be rebuilt? Were they damaged? Usually they just need a good cleanng and sync..

Holy high prices. I just got a rear power pilot installed today. I purchased it online, it took 5 mins to remove the rear rim and my local independent charged me $22 !!!!!

I noticed that I'm not leaking anymore. It's a common mod. I disabled all of the lines and took the carbs into Napa and matched the plugs up. Just to be safe I added hose clamps. Now I have more room for maintenance.

I'm from PDX. If you ever visit, ride to Crater Lake. It's one of the best rides I've ever been on.

Pull them and cap 'em. I did that this winter and it's one of the simpler and better mods I have done.

I have a OEM can with 8k on it. $50 plus shipping.

I have a first Gen FZ1 can sitting in my garage. PM if interested.

Great Video. I just changed the seals on my R1 forks. I built the spring compressor, sleeve driver and rod damper holder out of PVC. Everything cost me $5.00 Videos like this have helped me with confidence on tackling projects on my FZ1. Keep it up!!

I purchased the tap, bolts, washers and used Red Loctite. I think everything cost me less than $10.00. Since I had the motor out installation was a breeze. I used a rubber plug that I had lying around in the garage to plug the connector to the air box. It worked like a charm. Good luck...

Good job! Keep it up.. I quit 3 years ago when I was in Iraq. I smoked for 24 years.
