Yeah well what can I say, I was replacing the fucked fork seals and the rooted shock absorber when I was tightening up the bolt that holds the fork in and "ping" the be-yutch just snapped on me!
Figure it should be sweet for Manfield on Sunday though aye? Fork is still clamped in three other places... probably doesn't even need to be held there anyway... watch this space on sunday night for a smashed TL for sale "as is where is"!

I expected a barely believeable, but impossible to disprove story involving wheelstands, school girls and a cabarert singer.

Araldite mate, that'll fix it.
LOL you fkn animal/clown whatever, i thought i was bad at overtightened things, snaping the top yoke, thats something. Bizare mate, get it sorted soon and buy yourself a K3, chop chop.
Try Metro Wreckers and Vic wreckers in Oz to, there prices are pretty sweet in comparision to over here and i'd be surprised if they didn't have it, unless they are only going to sell complete forks which you might as well buy cause you're prolly fuck them next. But many a peep hits things and bend fork, leaving good yokes, so you could be lucky, but then if you were lucky you wouldn't of snapped the clamp in the first place, hahahahahahaha.

Mate I have been watching your thread with interest, how come they are all about broken bits lately :dodge: :rofl: :motu:
I don't think I have ever heard of this problem ever, gently gently, slowly slowly this is the greek way.
