Great video. A few recommendations I'd say would be that you would be better off not testing the fork with your stomach and your "buddies" above it. If it fails and goes catastrophically bad, youre going to have a bad day lol. The other recommendation id say would be to not use metal on metal tools. So as not to cause any damage doing the repair or possibly cause corrosion due to dissimilar metal contamination. Again, great video. Subscribed and looking forward to more videos.
Hi. Thanks for the video. I'm prepping to do my seals. What term do I search for to find that clamp? I'm having trouble finding it. All three point clamps I find have flat points, not the pointy points.
Hello bud, one fork is compression, and the other one is a dampner so they are supposed to be like that on these bikes. A slight difference is normal. Cheers.
Thank you for the kind comment, bud. I am fairly certain that Sprint St 1050 ABS doesn't have the upside down Showa forks like the tiger. I had the Sprint St 1050 about 10 years and it had regular shocks. Pyramid Seals were best recommended for those shocks back then, not sure if they are still available nowadays. Cheers
Great video, thanks for posting. I need to do both of mine soon. Very helpful

Appreciate the feedback, @johncolburn4353. Definitely, good things to keep in mind for the future. Cheers.
Thanks for the usefull video. I posted a link to your video on the Tiger Sport 1050 forum. I may be helpful to others tackling this job
Thanks so much. I really appreciate it!!
Great video, thanks for sharing. Where did you buy your hand guards?
Thanks @kurttallon. My hand guards are stock triumph guards that came from the factory.
Well they're nicer than the stock ones we have in the UK 🇬🇧 👍
Great video... Can you please tell me how much oil goes for each stem

Thank you!!! Great video!! I have changed seals but one fork is more stiff than the other. Why????

@@gasNgears okkk. Do you know why the steering "pulls" when turning?? Before the seal replacement everything was ok
@@paekeajiab4743 Taking a shot in the dark mate, I would check the wheel and fork alignment to begin with. Minor misalignment could be the culprit!
Thanx for this vid
No worries
Hello very nice job.. I like your guardrails , which company are they?
Thanks bud! Those are made by Heed. It's a polish company that makes decent bars. These also cheaper in comparison to SW Motech bars. Cheers!
@@gasNgears where can I find it, I am from Greece

Good video, as all your videos are. Can you please tell me the fork on the sprint st 1050 abs is the same as on the tiger or speed triple ?

Special tools? What is the orange c-clamp thingy?

you have defiantly had a bike fall on you for sure.
Haha no mate, not yet but I am paranoid for sure. Having no centre stand makes it super dodgy to take out the front end.
