How to check for a bent fork tube. With and without specialty tools.

- This video demonstrates how to inspect inner forks tubes to see if they are bent. You should do this with every fork service and is often overlooked when there is no complaint from the customer as was the case here.

Good one Shane!
Awesome Shane, what I'd like to point out when i was in tech school the instructor would call a student out if he caught a student literally sticking a magnetic base dial indicator on a metal work bench and a part that needs to be inspected with V-blocks. He'll vigorously shake the differential as an example if he doesn't see the student put the indicator attached to the differential, majority time students stick it on the work bench and differential is on those 2 fork arms to hold it to inspections and literally he'll say what is it your doing and you're doing it all wrong because its allowing play in your inspections if its not fully mounted to where it needs to be if that makes sense. Its like for ex : 4:24, if i didn't have that tool, i'd make my own big steel sheet and attach bolts to it, must make sure of flexing of the sheet is not possible and attach this sheet above with block or something, doesn't matter if it moves but as long as the whole sheet has holes where bolts and nuts can go through to attach v blocks to make sure of any play and the magnetic base I'd probably make a square trap box to allow it not to move. I don't know whether it makes any difference but i feel like it would. Your way of doing it is fine too. just as long as the v blocks don't move thats great.
Keep up the great work Shane.
:)
thank you so much señor

When you mentioned not knowing what`s been done to it that hit home. Got a deal on a `90 Springer and I`m finding previous abuse. Butchers can really screw things up. Motorcycles and airplanes require a better skill level than shade tree mechanics have.
I have some old down tubs that I checked by rolling it on the garage floor in different areas and saw they were bent. Not real scientific but effective.
Glad it helped. We will let Shane know!

I have a Yam125scooter that was in a wreck. The tubes do not look bent. I have to measure still. But I can not tell if the marks at the tops of the both tubes are kinks or triple tree clamp marks.
Hope this message makes sense to you as a decent human being that also works for a living and gets it. I’m the intern studying under Shane and on the social media team.. He's in the shop working or training a class. I fInally made it to your comment going down the list...just an FYI...he literally logs in and answers member questions daily! He does an AM and PM check in to answer all member questions. Consider joining...best $1.99 you'll spend this month 😁

Shane does try answer some non members questions when he get's some time so hang tight if joining is not an option for you.
One of these days I hope to move from the office to the shop! Wish I knew the answer but don't want to bs you. He couldn't screen these requests fast enough...
If you need help sooner choose or more personal his 1:1 option is below!
He just returned from overseas training techs and his inbox is slammed with requests. He is scheduling time each day again to answer techline orders. He does not have the bandwidth to provide email replies as his schedule is full with shop customers, training schedules, and one on ones.
There's good news though! A deep dive one-on-one with him is an option. Use video, email and phone support.

What should i do if noticed that on my recently bought bike the forks were repaired? Should i buy new ones or what? I do not feel anything bad while driving.
Hi friend. Running down today’s list of comments! I try to answer when I've seen it before, but I don't recognize this one. I’m the Social Media Manager here. That’s a good question for Shane. He gets hundreds of requests a day and starts each day answering MEMBER or donation support questions first and then if there is time he will try to circle back before heading to the shop for customer work.

Can you please show how check the inverted tube?
Use v blocks to give rotation clearance for the brake/axle mount or simply hang the part of the inverted tube off the bench and do a quick check for a bent tube.
which problem comes in bike when front forkes are bent
If it was a quick answer I’d try to respond here but I wouldn’t want to lead you wrong assuming certain factors. Reach out to me on my website contact page. We have been overwhelmed with ungrateful people and
scammers so I had to do something for my sanity by screening the over 300
requests a week! I’d love to work one on one with you! Contact Link: how2wrench.com/contact/

k now how do we fix it ?
As you can see from the slow response, it takes us forever to screen all these requests. 300-400 a week just in emails and 1000’s of comments! FYI members get answered daily first! Best $1.99 you’ll spend! 😁
That’s a great question for Shane directly! We are just the social media team. Shane does answer questions when he get's back around to non members eventually so hang tight, FYI >>>> he does member ones daily!
He just returned from overseas training techs and his inbox is slammed with requests. He is scheduling time each day again to answer techline orders. He does not have the bandwidth to provide free email replies as his schedule is full with shop customers, training schedules, and one on ones.
There's good news though! Shane has 2 solutions for you. One is a deep dive one-on-one with him with video, email and phone support. The other is a "quick fan support" option when it's a quick answer and just helps support the time for him to stop wrenching or training and get you in the direction that a free video had you close. Links to each are below. Hope this message makes sense to you as a decent human being that also works for a living and gets it!
Make it a great day!

Why does it matter if the forks are bent so little? Can't you just drive with them anyways?
The reason is the inner and outer tubes will not follow a bend as they move up and down. The seal will be forced to flex and leak. Also metal is weakened when bent and is a risk I wouldn't want to take on two wheels...
