I'm trying to give the street magic a bit of a tidy up at the moment. The fork bushes feel like they're shot. The inner leg has a lot of lateral movement within the outer. I've dropped the fork legs out, but can't seem to get them apart. There's a 6mm hex nut at the bottom of them which seems to turn freely, and I couldn't see a circlip under the dust seal to pull off. How do you get them apart and replace the bushes? Are the bushes a standard part you can buy or get a kit or something?
Also it's really down on power compared to how it used to be, but its still has its days where it feels like it's got balls (for a street magic). It's done over 10,000kms now and everything is stock. Would worn variator rollers give a drop in power, or inconsistent power delivery? What else would? Are they cheap enough to get new oem ones?
I was talking to a dude about the inconsistent power problem the other day and he suggested that I check a little plastic sprocket under the carb which controls the oil delivery and make sure the teeth still look ok. I've taken the airbox off but can't for the life of me figure out where to go next to get to this part. Help!
