Hellos,
my -92 built and -94 registered ST1100 suffered a front suspension failure yesterday when riding. It leaks oil a lot from the left tube. And right at the start of the season, of course....
I have yet to read my repair manual, but would like to ask which parts to order and replace for it for a good rebuild now that I will have to do it anyways? Anything wearing down. Here is an image for reference.
I have not done this before, I have only installed a set of Gold Valves on my old Africa Twin, and that was not too complicated. Might do the same for this one, too, if I can find the correct model.
Thanks!
EDIT: OK, just found this! Excellent! It might answer my question.
