Who can straighten a Bent Springer front end ? ( Don't ask ! Fucking young Indian female in a 5 series Beemer !!)
Is there any one in Australia you could recommend as being "the man" ? In WA would be fantastic of course , but around Oz also good..
My own bike , and I'm fairly OK with the mechanicals , but other than owning a Springer for 5+ years , I've never actually "worked" on the suspension per se.
20Km/H rear ender is all it took , she stops DEAD in a give way feeder 2/3 over the dotted line turning left onto a dual carriageway WITH NO CUNT COMING IN EITHER LANE ???
Bent back an inch in the old measurements, steering head bearings are fucked as well.
No longer available as a "built unit" from HD , only as component parts ( HUNDREDS of bits , no joke !)
You can get aftermarket "built units" of course , I know that, but they're not a straight replacement VPW tell me.
I would fit a Crossbones fork set ( same but in all Black , no chrome , again , not available as a "built unit" )
OR I may have to go conventional telefork front , Softail Custom/Softail Standard gear should bolt right up with minimal fuss , brakes and all
Anyone got one of them available ? 2007 and up would work
Thanks mate. Broken left ring finger (Clutch lever pounded it into the bitumen). Jarred right forearm ,corked right knee. Walking wounded thankfully.
She was most apologetic ( profusely !) for having panicked and ABS braked to a halt for no fucking reason IN A JUNCTION
Should I have been paying better attention ? OBVIOUSLY , usually I'm all too well aware of stupidity after riding Harleys on Perth roads for 22 years.
I rode the bike from the scene down to Frasers, I was on the way there anyways.
Frasers don't straighten forks of course , I've had teleforks straightened many times since I started riding in 1975 , hence my quest
