Cheers WN Ive got some pitted forksi can either get them rechromed for £125 or i can get some brand new 1s, with oil and seals (which ive already got), for £160+vat but are the new 1s worth the extra money?????????????????????
Don't think about the re-chroming, some places are hopeless at it, and still charge a fortune! Go for the new ones and everything will be nice and undamaged, then stick the seals and oil on e-bay and get a bit of wonga back.
thaks every 1 i was just about ot take your advice and get some new 1s i phoned Lm spares and the said they've none in stock and the wont back order and theres nothing they can do to help me why've they advertised the forks i need on there website i have no idea but thats a whole other story. any way the quest continues. does anybody know of a web site or company that could help me?
Go for re chroming lol polish the lowers, the guy I buy my stuff off is pretty decent he can usually do original stuff cheaper than main dealers PM me if you want his contact details
just google ABE: All Bike Engineering.
