Charlie,
Does Stephen make the tool for dismantling the chrome tubes from the lower
legs?

Hi David,
Contact Stephen Brenton on this list for the tool made expressly for
this purpose. I got mine from him last week and it's just the thing. No
scrounging for bits to make one and the time it would have taken to make
one can be better utilized. The cost isn't much more than that of the
pieces to make one youself. The side benefit is you can help another
Looper finance his restoration! :-) Cheers,

Charlie

I replaced steering head bearings yesterday in my 74
Eldo. Upon reassembly, the bike fell over to the left
off the motorcycle lift (jack) as it was lowered too
much while I was trying to jockey the lower triple
tree (with front wheel and fork assembly intact) to
the bottom of the steering axle (stem). Then, when I
righted the bike and refitted the motorcycle lift I
noticed that the interior threaded part of the left
fork assembly had "fallen down" into the outer portion
of the fork tube thereby making it impossible to
refasten that side of the fork assembly to the upper
triple plate. The right side was fine, however. Has
anyone had this experience who might share some
insight.
