If you have the forks head bearings off etc.(to prevent debris falling in
the bearings) the fork lock is fairly easily drilled out.

I am still restoring my Eldo, and have found that I am missing the key to the fork lock. My question is this: should I try to remove the old lock and get a replacement, or find a locksmith to make me a new key. If the first option is better, how is the old lock removed? I have heard that it can be done by grinding off the chrome lock cover, but if this is true, how should that cover be replaced? Any comments would be appreciated. Brian '74 Eldo '78 T3 |
