Fork allen bolts not finding piston rod??
Posted: Wed May 20, 2015 10:30 pm
Hi guys,
I've spent today changing the dust and oil seals on my forks (L1). I put it all back in the correct order but the allen bolts at the base of the fork will not find the piston rod thread, I've tried compressing the forks while tightening the bolt to no avail. I am yet to put the oil in, although I don't see how this could affect it all fitting in together.
Does anybody have any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong, or how to sort it out?
Any help is much appreciated, thanks
