Funnily enough I think this is the reason, the colour is really nice but it's overpowering with lowers. I'll post pics later to show what I mean.

Cost about £1.50 max.

A mate made me a fork damper rod holding tool for a ZZR1100 many years ago. It's an M16 nut welded to studding with a T-handle welded across the top. It's great for doing 24mm internal axle fixings as well.

Or even 5/8s unf with 15/16s AF heads if you work in pounds and shillings....ask your dad! If you ever work on buses or trucks especially leylands gardners etc you will know all about em. Same method for any allen screw if your are stuck. As for brook racing I bought some k tech fork springs off them and found them very helpful when other 'bigger' companies couldn't be bothered. Its a small place near bradford run by one lad who used to race bikes. However I got YC rebuild my rear shock and he did it for less than any shops were quoting.
