Removed the forks and replaced the seals on my LC. Incredibly all the bolts came undone, including the bolts in the fork tubes that hold the dampers, not 1 clip pinged off, never to be found again. Both seals came out without a struggle, both new ones went in and seated properly without a fight. I remembered to put the spacers in first. Both the fork plugs went in first time and again the clips went into their groves without flying across the garage and disappearing.The forks went back into the yokes no problem and the pinch bolts done up ok. I was so surprised it went so easily, I am wondering if I forgot anything! (I'm sure I put the springs in!)
