Title: How to modify front forks
Post by kdemery on 04.09.18 at 23:58:10

Hello

Can any one point me to the instruction documents on how to modify the front forks?

I believe it involves welding closed a hole and enlarging another.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Kevin

Hi Kevin,
look here:

instead of closing the upper bores/ holes  and drilling at 3mm,
Sepp told me once he now just closes the 2 bores  without drilling them up again.
I did it that way , and added  stronger springs,
Regards Ali

Hi Kevin,
I modified the front fork of my tr1 a few years ago according to this manual. along with harder feathers and other oil, the front fork has become much better.
