I'm looking to for anyone that has a good source to purchase fork tubes that are +8 - +10 over. I just personally trust anything that could unwind or unscrew itself. Would rather just buy the exten...

Recently picked this up (from welcome thread). It's a 1999 VLX600 and the seller told me I need new inner fork tubes. Would those cause the misalignment for the front tire. Below is a picture from ...
