    can i get forks straightened?

    as the title says, my forks are slightly bent and my old man reckons they can be straightened.

    is there anywhere that could do this in the lower north island? and what kinda moolah will i have to throw at them?

    cheers dudes

    Have you got any creases in the bent fork? If so, forget it.

    If not, give Steve a call.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    I can confirm that they do indeed have a fork press and frame jig etc.
