If you are a VISUAL type person that needs to SEE things to better understand... this YouTube video series ( 3 parts ) will give you a good understanding on the teardown and rebuild of the fork assy.

May I ask what happened to the video? I'm visual, LOL.

 

The top fork nut was incorporated into the Legend Axeo kit.

And this is the route I went for my chrome lowers. ,Bought a set of take-offs from the classified section, sent them to Sport Chrome, and received a set of lowers which were absolutely beautiful.
Well, until I took a stone or something on the highway and now have a ding/chip on one.

 

I installed the HD premium low single cartridge kit. One side I got all together, the other side had a taller spring and I couldn't compress it. Took it to the dealer and they charged me $20 to compress the spring and put the cap on.

 

I'm wondering why when I select the video it always says the video is private? Anyone else have this problem?

I put my chrome sliders on over Christmas, pretty straight forward. One thing to take note of is they require 24oz of oil for 49mm forks. Therefore, you need a minimum of three bottles of fork oil. I only grabbed 2 so I had to run to Madison on Sunday morning to pick up another one to finish. Put the SE heavy fork oil in. Only real problem I had was trying to get 30 ft/lbs on the bottom bolt, seemed to be turning inside the tube even with the spring compressed. Used the stock springs. Anyone else have that problem?

 

I didn't torque mine to spec until I had it fully assembled with the cap back on. Even then it wasn't easy to keep it from turning and torque it at the same time.

 

Congrats, best mod ever on any bike, big fan of the chromed forks....every bike should have this mod, but very few go without......looks awesome....

 

I heated then bent a 3/4" bolt and used it on the fork caps. Could also use a 3/4" coupler and a wrench.
