Title: Goldwing Fork Seals
Post by: jrobinson on February 09, 2017, 08:42:00 AM
A friend of mine bought a Goldwing Trike he plans to resell. The forks are leaking and the front brakes need attention. Knowing I have plenty of time on my hands, he asked if I'd look at it. Since I have plenty of time, I of course said yes.  :o


After making a hole in the shop, I loaded the bike on the trailer and backed up to the ramp. Bike went from trailer to shop easier than expected.

Wheel, fender and brake calipers removed.

Lower forks removed to access seals.

I'm helping him out, but he plans to sell it when I'm done. There should be a little payback for the work I'm doing. lol

A lot of work to find the right foot pedal operates the right front caliper and not the lever on bars.  (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170521/8d599911c6c896e1919cf481e224a7eb.jpg)
