Fork springs
« on: September 11, 2009, 05:16:39 PM »

 Well I have made the plunge on making my own fork spring tool!! Welded the 1/2 socket in the pipe and going to cut the notches for the crown nut tomorrow!! If Torque (Jacob) was still here I would already had the forks done and out riding the bike because he had made one himself. I have been in contact with his family and they have gone through his stuff like a bunch of wild dogs if you know what I mean. Went to his house and it had been cleaned out and just some odds and ends were out in his shop. NO FORK SPRING TOOL to be found. That is why I decided if he can do it I can to. He would tell me that alot!! Man I miss his friendship!! Sorry for venting!  :( Will let you know what happens when I use it on Sunday when I put my bike back together!! Anyone that wants to take a ride out this way is more than welcome to see the show!!  ;D
