Need the two front fork assembly's

smalls408 · 06-02-2008, 10:37 PM

I have a 1984 VF700F and I need to replace the pipes they are bent. I took both forks of but I cant get the tubes off. If someone knows how to take the tubes of please let me know, if not them I am just going to buy the assembly which is not cheap. If anyone knows of any websites where I can get cheap bike parts or has some for sale that are straight let me know please thanks for reading this and I appreciate all the help.

Did you remove the circlips under the seal? Service Honda has the best prices for factory parts. Brian

It looks like you need a special tool for that, do you? Does anyone know if VF500F forks would work on my VF700F?

You can get a circlip tool at any hardware store or auto parts store for a few dollars.

also after you remove the circlips you remove the bolts that are in the end of the forks that hold the damping rods. Here is a free manual download
