[savage sausage]

So here are my forks that I have re-conditioned...I was torn between original gold or nu skool black.
I wanted to try and keep some of the original 'el diablo' soul so the paioli's were treated to a rub down to remove some of the big gouges that were in them then a couple of coats of gold paint and silver on the tops and bottoms of the legs,followed by some clear lacquer to finish.

I fitted new Seals and dust covers and fresh oil.

Altogether this has cost ?35 about $56 to recondition them fully from tired worn out 13 year old forks into new (ish) forks that hopefully will deliver the goods on the bumpy stuff better than they would before I stripped them down.

For reference to re-anodise them was going to be about ?180 about $289 which was about a third of the cost of the bike
