    After watching several confusing half hour vids this one summed it up in 3mins.
    A couple unorthodox techniques but I now am aware of the inner workings

    Do you also hose out your engine every time you change that oil too?

    running water through your forks is moronic

    You make it sound so easy. If that lower bolt has been in there a while, it will fight you the whole way and the spring will not hold the damping rod enough. You will need to fabricate a tool to hold the rod.

    You really need to make it clear that a rear paddock stand is needed. Using a triple tree clamp stand without the paddock stand is never going to end well. I did see you use one in your video.

    I know this is nothing to do with the video but do you happen to have any instruction on how tighten the right switchgear please. I have tried to adjust the large screw under switch but it doesn't seam to be tightening so maybe its broke. can you please do a video on this as I haven't noticed one on CZcams.
