Hi Wasp,
I can wait.
Have a safe trip my friend.
I will send you through some images of the shocks when they arrive.

Hi Freakshow,
The unit the bike shop uses is probably like this one or is the cheaper one I have already posted an image of (it sells for around $100.00USD.
They are the best made hand operated units around.
They press the threads into the spoke which raises the threaded area making it larger then the spoke.
There is some fragments that drop out but not from cutting.

Damn brother I was hoping there was an easy and cheap way, oh well back to hoping.

That spoke screw chaser is from a dealer in the States.
I will find them again and post the web site.

The commercial spoke screw chasser is attached.
Its web site is http://www.hozan.co.jp/cycle_e/catalog/new/C-701.htm

This is the $5000.00 model.

Hi Wasp,
My shocks will be the last thing on your mind when you get to BK.
Though I would like to see some pictures when you get back.
You fly out tomorrow right.
Does the company that makes forks over there have the parallel flange CZ hard chrome inner fork tubes?

Hi mx250,
I would love to work on those wheels.
What a cool project.
Changing a tyre would be a nightmare because there is virtually no rim well.

Lets get back to fixing this wheel.
Okay flip the wheel over and lift out the spacer.

Next gently pry out the seal the same way we did on the other side.

Now we need a handy tool for motorcycle wheels a pair of circlip pliers.
With said pliers remove circlip.

Flip the wheel back over so we can drive the spacer out through the drum side.
We need something that can get the spacer and bearing moving which is best not held by hand. I could lathe up the tool but suggesting I did not have a lathe I will use a bolt that fits perfect. Place the hub on a lump of wood and using a rubber mallet tap the bolt head to get the spacer and bearing moving.

To finish the job I will use a scrap length of alloy rod and my trusty rubber mallet to tap the spacer and bearing out.
