Possible missing fork internal parts?
Posted: 19 Feb 2017, 13:44
Hi there
I bought a CRM250 ar (97) which came with an exploded diagram of the forks, when I disassembled them for a full rebuild there seems to be a part missing (both forks), it's listed on the diagram as 'Spacer guide seal ring' which is shown below the 'spacer guid' on the end of the 'spring spacer'. The three parts I've mentioned are listed as one and shown as one on the diagrams the bike shop orders it's parts from and they say it's no longer available.
As my only option seems to be to buy a secondhand pair of forks and hope the missing part comes with them I thought I'd ask on here first to see if anyone can confirm I have a missing part or knows where I could get one, also one of the afore mentioned 'Spacer guides' has had a whack, it seems to still be functional but if possible I'd like to replace it too.
Sorry, I don't know how to post a picture of my diagram on here, it says it must exist on the web already but this is what the bike shop has https://goo.gl/images/ba1Z4X 'the three parts shown as one are No6'.
Thanks for any help
Robin.
