porterb123 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I have ordered new seals/ bushings/ copper washers and O rings . The oil has not been changed since I joined this forum, so I am going to change out the internal wear items while doing this. I have rebuilt other front ends, but not an XX with RaceTech internals. Is the anything to look out for with the Gold valve setup. I also ordered the All Balls tapered bearings for the steering stem and will polish the fork tubes while everything is apart.

Byrdman Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 If you've rebuilt other forks, the XX's won't suprse you with anything new, trust me! Mother Honda Sucks............... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunedain Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Clean, clean, clean...make it all clean! I use contact cleaner and wash down the parts. Beware the nasty little sharp edge on the bushing slot on the fork slider. They can make your seals leak. A little plastic wrap will protect. Fill the cupped part of the seal w/bearing grease. You'll need to exercise the the damping rod a few times to get ALL THE OIL OUT. Just dont let Race-tech know your doing this or they'll try to sell you a flux capacitor for your valves which you could do without but it sure would spark talk in the paddock or down at the poser place.
