Totally unnecessary to remove the wheel and forks - it's a BMW! Remove caps from top of fork legs and drain the oil from the drain hole near the bottom of the fork. Remove the OEM spring and spacer from each leg. Fit a new o-ring on the drain hole bolt. Fill Wilbers oil in each leg as per instructions, install Wilbers springs as per Wilbers instructions, refit fork tube caps, compress the forks a number of times. Remove fork caps again and check oil level in each fork, adjust if necessary, refit fork caps and torque them. Remove OEM shock and install Wilbers shock. Adjust it as per Wilbers instructions. Set the SAG and adjust the rebound to match the forks - you may need to do this a number of times until you get it right for your weight and the load you carry. It's that simple - your video is misinformation🕊
@@ernier9033 I do not see it as at all unnecessary -- if you are just changing fork oil, yes, do it the simple way. But if you're putting in new springs it makes sense to also change out the seals and do a full external and internal inspection for any stress or corrosion, and the integrity of the rubber boots (these are 30+ year old machines!). To do so really doesn't take up a great deal of extra time.
Great job! Thank you for taking the time to show us.
Thank You for share
Thats an awesome PD😍
Thank you very much. Sadly I had to sell her, but to a very good new home.
Cool!
kraftwerk " we are show room dummies " : )
quite a good song as a soundtrack for videos👍🏻
do you have a drawing to reproduce an aluminum suitcase like this?
Sorry I don’t, I’ve sold the beauty.
so was it worthy? noticeable difference?
Yes it was noticeable! On a BMW however it is not as high on the priority list as for a Harley.😉
