Fork Studs (Suzuki RM in this case)
« on: June 04, 2015, 11:48:03 pm »
Is there any way to replace the four M6x1 studs that hold the axle clamp? (The thread is worn on mine...)
How are the originals held in?

Thanks for any info. I'm sure it's not a rare situation (1981 RM125X specifically)

They are just threaded into the fork leg, unscrew and replace.

Thanks. Great news. I had nightmares they were pressed in or something. (then "grown together" by 34years.) I haven't removed them yet. CD11 today....

They aren't shown separately on the parts diagram I'll look locally for metric studs.
