Well, as much as I like my local garage, their fork service price is making me retreat to my mechanical chops. I just can't justify $600 for less than $100 in parts and a couple hours of labor. These look like pretty standard forks. BUT, if anyone has done this service before and ran into anything out of the ordinary, please let me know. Otherwise, I will post my experience. Maybe I will do a tutorial, as I do not see one here. All Balls equipment is arriving soon, and Motul fork oil.
