front fork remove.
For the first time, I disassembled the front fork myself.
It's easier to assemble.
I would like to continue to enjoy maintenance.

Nice video, did you have to use a front stand or did you do them one by one?

[@masa5404s]

Thank you for commenting. A front stand is required. Because you can work safely. Enjoy your motorcycle with safety first.

[@kevinchamberlain7928]

How often should this be done?

[@masa5404s]

Thanks for the comment. In general, it is replaced after 5000 to 10000km. However, since I enjoy changing fork oil, I change it at 3000km.

Great video, I am doing mine and want to replace all of the rubber seals and bushings. When you looked down the fork slider (bottom portion), what you can see is the oil lock piece which has a rubber seal. That you should remove, somehow, and replace the rubber seal. I am trying to figure out how to remove the oil lock piece. Let me know if you did, thanks.

I turned a special tool for this on the lathe. A 35mm thick POM rod with a cone at the end that tapers to 28.5mm. I then ground a cross into the cone to make it a little flexible. The rod is about 350-400mm long and is then hammered into the Hydrostop with a plastic hammer. By wiggling it back and forth a little, the hydrostop loosens and can be pulled out carefully. You have to be very careful not to scratch the anodised layer of the outer tube.

Thanks for the comment! This video omits the process of loosening the oil lock piece, but I used an unusual method. This method is to loosen the bottom bolt with an electric impact drill before disassembling the front forks. Here you just loosen it. If oil spills out, don't worry about it, just lightly retighten. Next, loosen the top cap.Again, just loosen it. After that process, I removed the fork from the top bridge. Then it is time to change the oil. You can tighten the bolts to the specified torque even after putting them back on the body. Good luck!

@@masa5404s You just get the Cartridge and not the oil lock piece. Under it is the most dirt and it needs to be removed. Otherwise your new oil will be contaminated instantly

@@Wilhelm147 Roger that! I will refer to this for future oil changes!

[@roehmairsofting]

how much fork oil?

[@masa5404s]

Thanks for the comment. Please see the service manual for exact quantities. I put in the proper amount. Still, no problem at all. Enjoy your motorcycle life.

[@Wilhelm147]

The SC33 has a air cushion of 114mm +-4mm. I would recommand 110mm if you want a little bit harder suspension.

Your video should be called fork, disassembly, not fork removal.

[@masa5404s]

Thanks for the comment! I agree with your opinion. Keep enjoying the variety of videos.
