front spring replacement
Once I have my front forks removed from the triple tree will I have to take them apart to replace the springs or is it just the removal of the spring and spacer? Appreciate you input fellas.
You don't have to remove the forks to change the springs. Just jack it up, loosen the tree clamps at the top & remove the top tube nut then pull em out (if your bars don't get in the way).

Sportypig is suggesting one of these:
Notice the o-ring to prevent scratches and the rounded corners to help prevent cracking the chrome. It's a 1 3/8" socket that's shallow to allow working under your mounted handlebars. I think mine is from Motion Pro ("MP 08-0139" stamped on side) available through Denis Kirk, Drag Specialties, etc.
