HELP! SOS!

Post by KDX_Johnny »

I'm taking my suspension apart and I can't get the inner tube out! The manual says just pull it... I have been but she won't come out! I'm doing seals and race tech springs.
Just a square trying to ram myself into that circular hole...

HELP! SOS!

Post by Gotanubike »

Hi, you have an '06 200 with conventional forks? I think you need to remove the damper rod first. A 27mm(29mm for E conventional forks) nut welded to the end of an "18 T bar to hold the damper from the inside. Loosen off the bottom to remove the valving. Damper spring and rod come out the top. Only then can they be separated. Check page 3-4 of my sig suspension thread

Damper rod and the circlip under the dust seal that sits right above the fork seal.

I took it all apart properly. I just needed the dumb inverted 27mm. I have one now and will get back at it after work. Thanks guys!
