Red: First Time Forks

Partially disassembled the front forks, but quickly realized that these early style require a pin wrench (or just a strap wrench if you're lucky) to get them apart completely.  Spent the rest of the time cleaning the mud off with the pointy popsicle stick.





No circlip below, which was the first clue that it was a different model than anything in Clymer's.




The 2-piece bottom is also a tip that these are the early style.


Holes for the pin wrench.  The diameter is about 1-3/4".  The hole itself is about 1/8".



Caked on gunk.  No surprise.



Discarded these...



And these...



And these...
