The fork bolts are fairly easy to change out. You need a 24mm socket on a short extension. Torque value was low but they took some umph to unscrew. Once the last thread is cleared they pop up about an inch.

Honda calls for gasket replacement. Gaskets need to be lubbed with 10W fork oil. Install is a bit tricker. You have to overcome spring pressure to engage the first few threads. I'm guessing it took me 20 minutes in total.

Check the list of CB1100 compatible levers at Webike's website:

[url=http://japan.webike.net/ps/#!p.m=311&p.c=1032&p.sk=1]http://japan.webike.net/ps/#!p.m=311&p.c=1032&p.sk=1

I've since seen some US made levers for the CB1100 but don't have a link.

If you order some from Japan, I recommend Samurider.com. If it's made in Japan, Samurider can get it.

Levers are all over fleebay, out of curiosity I bought a set of silver for my BMW, I was surprised at the good quality for 30 something bucks. They have bushings pressed in and they function really well for the money. I am curious about the anodized color wearing off from use leaving a silver wear mark from finger area. If you try the fleebay ones make sure you find a seller shipping from USA, I know they are all from China but the shipping info from China says something about paying import duties, who knows where that will go.

My latest accessory - Honda’s RED fork adjustment bolts:

Which coincidently matches the RED U-Kanaya levers:

So now the bike has a RED tank, RED side covers, RED air cleaner covers, RED fairing, RED seat piping, RED oil filler cap, RED levers, RED fork bolts.

So where can I get RED tires? Big Grin

you need red fork gaitors!

They are from some off road shocks he had laying around
