Hello,
The fork tube dampers on my 67 XL need replacement. One is bent, the other scratchy.
I learned the hard way that my sportster millesime is the last from K series. So cool, it's rare and the fork is correct. And skinny. Ok !
NOW how can I find for damper replacement ?
There is a newer one on http://www.debrix.com/33-4mm-Steel-L...24-0454-vt.htm but I don't see where the long fork spring and axle will go.
It's supposed to fit pre 1967 forks by drilling the bottom hole bigger. And that's it ?
Narrowend FX's 1971 & 1972 also share those forks but I can't even find a set of used damper tubes which is still the simplest solution.
Any advice or potential used parts sources in US or EU are welcome
