TY250 fork tube replacement

[David Lahey]

A couple of years ago I crashed this TY250 on some granite rocks which deeply scratched the left fork tube.
As a temporary fix, I smoothed down the raised edges of the scratches with a fine abrasive stone and filled the grooves with epoxy resin. The repair worked well but my intention was to fix it properly eventually.
I recently bought some new fork tubes and have started fitting them.
One photo is before I pulled the front end apart.
The other photo shows the new fork tubes fitted into the clamps.
Modifications to the bottom oil holes in the damper rods are visible.
My next job is to clean up and polish the fork sliders/bottoms/bottles.
