      Got it done, thanks for your help! Very easy overall just a little time-consuming. Could not find that class 200 PVC, so I got the 1.5" grade 40 and cut it in half down the middle then put it on and taped them together which worked as an option. The old oil was so nasty, I wouldn't be surprised it was never serviced since 2007. Thanks again!

    Your videos are treasures. Fascinating stuff. I'm a new owner of a 2004 1300C and never fancied myself a mechanical person until I aquired this bike. Now you can't keep me out of the garage and I may go to school and become a certified motorcycle mechanic. Your videos have made it plain and less intimidating. Many thanks from New Mexico.

"the seal has writing on it. put it down the same way it came out" type things are what i really appreciate. Well done on this job.

    Rocco you are the answer. I need to replace the fork seals on my 03 1800 and was worried about doing so myself. I have replaced coolant hoses, clutch and all maintenance myself, but I was worried about the seals. Now I'm confident I can do it. The way you show and use the pvc pipe, you remind me of my Dad. He could fix anything and taught me that I should be able to repair the things I own. There is a time and place where a professional is needed, but a guy should be able to repair his property. Watching you brought back the great memories of my mentor, my Father. Thank you Rocco . Be safe and well my friend

Otherwise, this tutorial complements and provides a complete picture of fork seal replacement. I live in Harley town, and I was told that they "don't work on one of those motorcycles". I was even referred to another shop in another town that works on Honda. Great ole youtube, it has almost everything.

    Just found you, on the tube. I have a vt1100 c 1992 with extended forks in bad need of some fork seal replacement. Was planning go to the shop and have them fix it.. but I already did basic maintenance on the bike myself, oils change, brake and clutch fluid replacement. After watching you do this I think I give it a try myself. Seems quite easy actually. Thank for an very educational channel. You are a freaking legend sir 👍🏻👍🏻

    I watched this probably 30x while doing my forks. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without this. Thanks. Only problem I had is those damn lower bolts stripped at the bottom of the fork so I had to go get someone to take them out. Other than that it was great.

    • @TwoWheelRocco
      @TwoWheelRocco  2 месяца назад +1

      Happy to help. I find that you need an impact while the forks were still together to crack those bottom bolts. Or they just spin.

    So I performed this repair on MY vtx. The only thing I had trouble with was finding the pipe. I couldn't find the specific 1 1/2 pipe anywhere, so I got what they had at the store thinking that all pvc pipes are created equal, right? Wrong! 🤣 Just a hair too small. So what I did was take a circ saw and cut a slit lengthwise down the pipe allowing it to spread open just a little farther and oiled up the inside of the pipe to aid in removing it once I had the washer, seal, and boot seated. I hope this helps anyone who runs into the same problem.
