Well I finaly got over to Pete's place on Sunday morning and sure enough the right hand fork was locked solid couldn't even spin the fork leg round, Pete already had the front gaurd and caliper off and top nuts off, so only a few minutes and had the fork off the bike, we then went down to his shed where his vice was and proceeded to undo the springs and remove the seal holder.
The fork was still solid and not bugging so we sprayed a lot of CRC down the fork seal after a while we got the bottom of the fork to move round the fork leg, it was still very tight, by the way there wasn't a drop of oil in the fork, but no rust, we then put the fork in the vice facing straight down in soft jaws and clamped it up nice and tight, we marked the fork leg so when hitting it down with a soft face hammer to see if it moved and sure enough it started to move down with light hitting where the seal goes and the bottom leg finaly came off.
What cause the fork to jam, on the bottom bush on the end of the chrome fork leg was a big score mark and looking inside the fork leg bottom the score mark was all up the botton fork leg, this was the problen that caused it to seize solid.
A bit of a hone out to get rid off the score marks and new bushes, seals etc etc and it will be all fixed, I left Pete to pull the other fork apart as he now knows what to do, but I told him I am only a phone call away if he has any problems.
Pete and his wife was over my way yestertay and they dropped around to check out my bikes and work shop and had a cuppa and good talk, they are realy nice people and I think Pete will become another good friend and I am sure I be getting a few more jobs from him over time, there are a few other things that he's got to look into with the bike but at lease when he puts his forks back together he be dropping by on the Norton and I am sure we be going for a few rides together.
Its Pete's first British bike so its all a learning curve for him and he knows I will be there to help him with any problems.
