[QUOTE="motometal, post: 1014738, member: 24727"] it depends what your future plans are. For example, if one or both seals go bad, are you going to want to tackle the job yourself? If so, it wouldn't be a bad investment to get the tools now. I think I paid about thirty US for the wrench for the big nut, and made the tool for holding the dampening rod out of aluminum. A fork seal driver would be nice as well, those are pretty expensive though. Another consideration is how long you will either have this or other HOndas. On the other hand, if you'd rather not work on it, $100 Canadian doesn't sound out of line. must disassemble to do a thorough job. Also, you don't fill these by measuring distance from the top of the tube, you go by volume. For the most plush action, i'd recommend starting off with less than the stock nominal volume, and add gradually with a syringe until it only lightly bottoms. [/QUOTE]
