I would be tempted with this one. I quite like the 600. Mind you I would get that front sprocket off. At least I'd feel beter about that. A few quid spent on that wold leave my conscoius clearer.

I don't think it will have done any damage but you'll soon find out if it starts leaking.

You ought to check the spark plugs as well then and the other items that can be changed easily like gearbox oil and cooling system.

Something like that happened to me.

That old bag of shite the Honda CBX550 used TQF in the front forks (auto transmission fluid) as reccommended in the manual. I would assume that power steeing fluid is similar and provided it's the right grade and doesn't inhibit fork movement then there shouldn't be a problem.

cheers fellas, ive allready done the oil coolant etc and have just finished the fork oil change, i'l c 2mora if it stops the excessive play!!! none of the internals looked to bad howeva the drain plug on the left fork had been bodged back on (the head had snapped off the little torx bolt) and i guess it now needs drillin out?but it aint leaking so it'l get left alone till i decide to renew the springs on them, next job is that bodged front sprocket :evil: , change the rear sprocket and the chain then 2 tyres as i couldnt resist burnin the back one out (it was knacked anyhow) and fingers crossed that should be that [-o< .......................
