Default Front Forks on the Gladdie.

Any one out there changed the springs and oil on there front forks. I'm thinking of doing this to mine, But i'm after information on how to go about it.

I'm assuming the forks are the same as a K3-K9!!!!!!!! I'm not bad with spanners but never had the forks in bits, Any pointers also can any one recommend what sort of oil and springs to use. The only springs i've seen are ohlins springs. Any one recommend any more makes.

Cheers.

Default Re: Front Forks on the Gladdie.

for the SV i bought a set from JHS racing.

15w oil and springs. Remove the nut on top with a rag around the socket to stop it marking, pump the oil out with a little hand pump about a fiver but measure the oil level before hand . Remove springs, put new ones in and top oil in.
