Z1000J/R fork tops.

[chrisNI]

Anyone got a good solution for J/R fork top/nut thingys. I have two sets of 1000R forks here and both sets have a different solution to the air valve thing on the top that also holds the spring in, and neither of them look very smart. Anyone got a picture of what they should look like, or even better a better solution that looks slightly tricker? Do PMC or someone make an after market one? Also, anyone had a good experience with putting better/new springs in these and what were they?

Chris i have a tube with a single central valve, which joins both valves together but not sure it come under the heading of trick!!

Might be something here if you are looking to replace the fork springs.

Al the set that was on mine was like that, likewise not sure it could be described as trick.

Thanks for the link Al that's the kind of info I waslooking for.

Standard is the two small valves poking out with knurled alloy caps on them which i have never had for some reason.

The tube with central valve replaces all of it and with air pressure being so low i dont think its a bad idea so have stuck with it.
