Hi,
I am in the middle of a rebuild, and I have rebuilt my front shocks with new springs and seals. My bike is on a lift, and I installed each fork tube with the forks fully extended, poured in the proper amount of oil, and then screwed in the top forks nuts. With the bike still on the lift with the forks still extended, I installed the front fender and wheel. As I lower the bike down on the lift, the front forks will not compress. I can put all my weight on the front end, and it won’t compress. Did I miss something, or is something not lined up properly? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
