315r fork seals part done but stuck
Right think im back on track now. The bush that was stuck in the fork was brass, so i put it in hot water which made the aluminium fork slightly expand so i could tap the bush out. :-) so back where i first started now. going to follow your advice above now and see if i can get it right this time. cheers for advice, will keep this updated, cheers matt

315r fork seals part done but stuck
cheers for the replies, the info is brill. i have done exactly as you said. put all the bushes etc together in the bottom part of the forks, then tried to put them together. even tried with the pvc pipe that was mensioned, but that is where im going wrong...... tried 5 times so far with no luck...... only problem now i have put them all together is that i took everything back out (seals etc) but the bottom bush is now stuck in the fork.. So not a clue how i will get that out now :-( I should have looked in to it more first than trying myself.

315r fork seals part done but stuck
its the split bush thats on the damper section. I cant get it to stay where it is, everytime i go to put the forks back together the oil seal pushes it up the damper.

315r fork seals part done but stuck
Hi all, i have been attempting to do my fork seals on my 315r (99) today. I have got to the point where the new seals are in. Now when i try to put the forks back together i am struggling. When i try to put the forks back together there is like a split washer (dont know the exact name for it) but it wont stay in place. It says in the manual that there is a sepcial tool required as the washer keeps sliking up the forks when it should say in place. has any one got any ideas of what too you use to do this?? hope you understand as my explanation is probabily not the best, cheers matt

Clutch Drag At Low Revs?
Hi all, bought a mont 315 r that hadnt been used for 1 and half years, just been stood, anyways after giving it a good ride, i replaced the gearbox oil. Seems loads better now, but when the engine is at low revs, with the clutch in, it seems to drag a little and bike keeps moving, until i give it a good rev. any ideas please?? i have only been riding around in the garden since changing the oil, so wondering if it just needs a good run in? cheers
