I have a total rebuilt 1964 CB77 after many miles and problems most I have sorted, I just came back after a run and noticed oil on one of the chrome covers was running down and a small drip on the floor so it looks like one of the fork seals have gone so my questions are -
CAN I JUST REMOVE THE ONE FORK LEG WITH OUT TAKING OFF HEADLAMP AND TOP YOKE ?
MY IDEA IS TO JUST REMOVE WHEEL, MUDGUARD, TOP FORK NUT, PINCH BOLT, AND WILL THE ONE FORK LEG DROP DOWN ?
I ONLY WISH TO REPLACE THE SEAL ON THE ONE LEG THAT IS LEAKING.
MY FORKS ARE STEEL.

Re: Front fork oil seal replacement
The slider will come off without removing a lot of parts.
Axle, fender bolt, unscrew the chrome part from the slider, remove slider then chrome part. ........lm
