Setting the fluid level in front forks accurately is critical to the safe handling of your bike and this tool makes it a piece of cake.
The vast majority of workshop manuals will give you an air height for the fluid level ie the measurement from the top of the fork tube to the fluid level often with spring out and the fork at maximum compression. You simply tighten up the setting screw on the aluminium ring at the correct air height, fill the fork tube to approximately the correct height, by eye and then a little bit more. Push the metal tube into the fork leg and suck the excess fluid out using the syringe; when the fluid is at the correct height the syringe will start to suck air instead of suspension fluid. You then move to the next leg safe in the knowledge that both legs will contain exactly the same height of fluid.
Our experience is that the syringes with this product don't last forever with the interaction with suspension fluid and we would advise you to clean it out thoroughly after use. The syringe can be exchanged for a vacuum brake bleeding tool. The syringes on the professional version last much longer, so if you are stripping a lot of forks it is a better buy.

Let customers speak for us
As a fully qualified Motor Vehicle Engineer with 60 years experience I have always used Chemico Valve Grinding Paste to not only lap in valves in a cylinder head, but to also to lap in plain bushes to allow clearance for lubrication. I would not use or recommend anything else to carry out these tasks.
Fitted and doing just what was required.
Absolutely excellent , good service and v competative prices.
Great service, quality parts which is the main thing. Seemed to take a while to arrive, post office for you

All good. Thanks.
Good product. Flexible in a limited space allowed easier fuel line routing.
Exactly as described, excellent quality and well priced
Used for classic Kawasaki z900A4 , replaced the old corroded one for the left hand handlebar switchgear to main loom . Buy the Laser crimping tool to crimp the connectors correctly.
Thanks
Very good just what I was looking for.
This battery is a revelation and seemingly game changing battery technology. It is just so light! I initially thought it had nothing inside it, fitted it to my Guzzi and it cranked it over effortlessly, on a motorcycle any weight changing tech is obviously very welcome.
just what I needed at a good price and fast shipping.
Fsst post sensible prices , very good company to deal with
