[z1bman]

there is a special tool but if you re assemble the forks & use a windy/air gun it should come out if you haven't got one your local car or bike garage will do it for you for a drink

Whittle a point on the end of a broom handle - and whack it down (inside) the stanchion to hold the damper still - gives you a good chance

As mentioned, a windy gun usually works OK too

I used a thin wooden baton, it worked fine.

Keith, you have mail !

dont forget to remove the damper valve's from the old fork tube as the new replacement tubes do not come with them fitted

number 27 & 28 & the parts above them in the oblong box in the exploded view have to be removed
