Fork tool

#1 PostAuthor: DavidZ1R » Wed Apr 13, 2022 6:00 pm

Hi guys, the little tool that is available for removing the internals on a set of forks, from bikers tools I think, does it work on the z1000a, just the inside slide on the 650 has a round hole not a hex head. Before I start to change the pitted tubes. Thanks

Why don’t you give Ralph owner of bikers toolbox (SW area rep) a call. His number is inside the front cover of the year book.

Sorry to revive this old post but can you you tell me which tool I need for an A4, there are so many versions on the Website, long ones of varying sizes plus little tools that must need long socket extensions. I tried undoing the bottom allen socket with an impact driver but it just spins, the impact driver method had never let me down before.

Thanks, Phil
