Hey guys,
So a few weeks ago it got real cold, my bike froze (literally), and I ended up hitting a huge pothole the next day when it defrosted and I thought I blew my seals. The bars when straight down.
This is the one job I'm scared of because of space, tools, and everything I read/watched said it was not a good one to do (I don't have have space to leave my bike apart for more than a day)
anyway, I took it to the dealer and they said that its my forks, but to fix it, they quoted me a $3300 which is a lot of money. My question is, on the quote, they list two part numbers
T2041520 (which is the left stanchion)
T2041510 (right station)
The left lists at $1950 while the right is $908. I can't imagine why the left is a full $1000 more than the right?
but what's more is I assumed the that the Right and Left Stanchion implied that both forks were getting changed, but the guy said this was the price for just the left fork.
This is the triumph dealer. They seemed confused on the part numbers, price difference, and also why there are two stanchion parts for one fork. I was wondering if anyone has done this job and has more information on it? Its an insane amount of money, really wondering if I should just figure out a way to be able to do it myself.
