Default Fork Cap Tool
I am getting ready to do chrome sliders on a buddies 13 Roadglide and I can't find my Fork cap socket. Any idea where to purchase one and what size? I bought mine a long time about and loaned it to someone I am sure...

I don't have the socket size for you but I was able to use a big ol crescent wrench on mine when I swapped out the lowers.
