Hey there...so I decided that I needed new tires. Couldn't manage to get the front tire off..really odd. I suspected that there might be some cross threading going on, but decided to let the pros handle it. Took it to the shop where I bought the tires, and see if they could do anything w/it.
Yep..they couldn't get the damn thing out either. I'm looking at needing to hack the axle out of there, and replacing the left fork tube lower. (The black part where the front axle/spindle goes through.)
Well..wouldn't you know it. Triumph doesn't sell just the damn lower, I have to get a WHOLE NEW freeking fork tube, internals and all. To the tune of $741, because they can't sell me just the tube and associated lower w/o internals. An all or nothing kinda deal.
So..aside from hoping I can find something cheaper on ebay, is there a mfg who will replace the entire fork assembly w/improved internals?? Somebody please say yes...
