Places in melbourne that straighten forks?

Postby LLmoose » Sun Sep 09, 2007 9:44 pm

I was going to do the fork seals in my GPX250 and have realised they are slightly bent. Does anyone know of somewhere to get them straightened around melbourne? Im on the northern side.

Bob Martin are your best shot in Ferntree Gully, take them anywhere else and they send it off to Bob Martin then take their slug as well. 9758 4738

Not really, would depend on how badly bent they are for starters I guess. When I binned my bike I spent a bit over a g there, but that waws frame welding, pulling motor out of the bike, sticking it back in etc, shitload of labour and fork straightening was but one compnent of that. Shouldn't be too hard on your wallet I wouldn't think really.
