Another fork slider question!!!
I am a little confussed with this do the forks need to come off of the bike to do sliders on a 07 sg. If somebody could help me out here it would be greatly appreciated. Are they taken off the bike just because its much easier to put back together.

RE: Another fork slider question!!!
The entire fork does not have to be pulled from the triple tree to swap sliders. I have installed a pile of them without pulling the fork tubes.
Some people think that the fork tubes have to come out so you can seat the seals. Not true. I push the seals in place most of the way with my fingertips and then use two wooden dowels 180 degrees from each other to push the seals home.
