I hope you were joking about swapping our forks over, cos if I get my bike back from you with these manky silver forks.

What did you do to paint them, just sand a bit and prime and paint or what? thinking of doing the same here. Let me know if you can. Cheers -Dave

Could damn near be done without even taking the tubes out I reckon.

I've reprayed a couple of sets of forks on SVs the first time i just dropped the front wheel out, this time i had the forks out to fit some progressive springs.
All I did was take the dust seals off, tape up the stanchions, rub down with some wet and dry, prime, paint and lacquer. I just used a couple of spray cans from Halfords.
