    1982 VF750 Sabre

    Hi guys, my air locks top on the top of the fork are completely chewed up, as I tried to undo them with 24mm 12 point socket and well much later I've been told that they tend to do that. So my option is now to file it down to 23mm and use 23mm socket or spanner, but all i could find in shops were 12 point spanners, would anyone has 6 point socket/spanner or know where to get one?
    Thanks heaps

    Looks like someones been trying to undo them whilst the top clamps have been still done up

    Somewhere like George Henry Ltd would be the place to go, if you've got one up in your neck of the woods

    they look pretty fecked allright, id clean them up with a file an try to find a socket (imperial or metric) that was a snug (but not umpossible) fit and tap it home with a mallet or what have you. failing that id be consulting my big fuckoff pipe wrench
