Hi! Noccers

Thanks for all your suggestions, I have now solved the fork gap problem

Hi all, I just bought a new seat for an ES2 but I thing this one is for 1956 on. And the ES2 I'm working on is from 1955. As it seems to be the same frame, it would be fine to have some pics about a 56 model to seehow to fit it.

I have a pair of roadholders and want to change the seals,the problem is that the seal holders seems to be screwed down into the forks,when I look down into where the seals are there is something which I assume is a seal holder,it has two holes on
