I'm posting this on multiple forums, sorry if you've seen it elsewhere... After the "fork oil stink" thread which discussed some interesting things about fork internal parts, I've begun dismantling my forks for a service... can anyone advise regarding the "fork inner pipe" (as the parts book calls it)? I've disassembled things as far as the service manual and other online resources suggest, but there's still some bits at the bottom rattling around on the inside, which aren't shown on any diagrams I can find. They aren't mentioned in any of the written or video tutorials I've seen. I see no obvious way of removing them (no retaining rings, etc). The parts in question are inside the bottom of the main tube, concentric (if you will) to the bushing. That's what's shown in the photos, you can see the approximately 1-inch-wide relieved external groove where the bushing seats: Here's a link to a short video I made showing the bits and their movement: https://youtu.be/Fz8tAywDIWE I was under the impression that these forks were pretty much a universal design; I've seen video tutorials for other bikes which appear to have identical parts... but no mention of these components...Do I just do my best to clean everything with those bits in place and reassemble, or is there something else I should be doing here?

Kia ora. After far too long I finally bought a W650. Will be customising it further over the coming months - although mostly riding it as it is summer. Hoping that this group will help as I hit the inevitable challenge of a lack of mechanical skill combined with a lack of mechanical knowledge. Mark

Loving the bike so far and pretty happy with the modifications it came with. One thing is bugging me though- it is so quiet. I like the look of the original mufflers but the silence is killing me. Anyone recently removed the baffles from their bike?

Hey W friends, I recently had some custom tank badges made for my bike, and I needed to make a minimum order, so I have a couple of sets left over. They are epoxy acrylic "domed" stickers, printed on chrome gold background. 85mm diameter. They catch the light beautifully, though its hard to get pics of them properly. If anyone is interested, they are 50 bucks per pair ( plus shipping) just let me know, otherwise ill throw them up on the ol ebay.

Hi All, can anyone with how to remove the ignition barrel from the yoke? It appears to have some strange security bolts attaching it. many thanks

Checking steering head bearings (which are surprisingly good… just cleaned and greased them) and decided to check fork seals and oil. Boy did that old oil stink! removed the dampers … made the ‘handle tool’ out of a 12” long 5/8th bolt (its hex head is 240mm, just right), and using a 5/8th coupling nut, connected another 5/8th bolt (5” this time) with a couple 5/8th nuts to double nut the coupling. Worked fine. the fork- bottom 8mm bolt was pretty stuck but some heat and PB blaster did the trick. One of the fork bolts was missing its copper washer… suggesting a previous owner lost it and failed to replace it with a new one. my question concerns that split plastic washer/seal on the top of the damper. Does it need to be replaced and what is the part number? Both of my old ones look fine, but I didn’t see a part number in the parts manual. I’ve ordered new 8mm bolts as well since one of them is pretty bungee up. V

So i have been looking for ever to get some scrambler pipes for the Dub, and have been looking at the scrambler pipes from Khammoto in Thailand. They look the business, so im just wondering if anyone (surely someone!) has tried these out and can give feedback on fit and finish, and sound. cheers, Judd.
