just come in from getting em out and what a TW@T! they were haha and if a ring spanner counts as a spring compressor then yes! luckily everything inside the forks seems to be in order no bent fork rods and no snapped springs :D and the spring stops were the nylon washer type :D so all was worth it in the end

Good to hear ya had everything in there, My " rebuilt " GP150 from India ( Tradesparesauto on ebay ) had no top nylon stops at all, but going by the engine I should have been ready for missing parts & poor workmanship. Hope it all goes together ok, mines still not registered after a year of doing stuff, hope to get it done soon. Ha !

All the best

well the gu i bought mine from supposidly stripped the front end down and replace everything and had sprayed because he wasnt happy with the paint but i dont where he got it from probably india tbh as the crank had been beaten with a hammer to stop the flywheel from fallin off cos it didnt have a wavy washer!
and yes thankyou everything is all sorted now the progress of it is all on this one :D
