I thoroughly cleaned and prepped the fork lowers (I had not touched them since I brought them back from the powder coater). I measured the fork tubes and bushings: everything is out of spec. The tubes are straight, but the bushings and fork tubes are worn. I know I could reassembly and it would function okay, but I'm striving for a properly restored motorcycle here, not an exercise in mediocrity. Therefore, I need all new tubes and bushings.
