Bent motorbike forks?
I have just bought a bike from a friend. He had a bump on it square on to the front.
My question is…
The forks travel up and down with FULL range but they some times stick in the down position.
I personally think they are bent but only very slightly, whats your opinions? and how should I fix them?

Before you buy new forks..loosen the clamp bolts….work the shocks up and down a few times and tighten. The bump may have just caused the forks to be in a bind. When you price a new set of forks you may like my answer even more.
