 You are looking at a little over 100 quid if you do it yourself,  for new springs, oil and seals. The same plus 40-50 quid for a local independant type mechanic if you are a bit of a spanner numpty Or about 300 quid if you send them to one of the big name suspension fettlers, KAIS, K Tech, Maxton, MC Technics, HM Racing etc

Are they standard forks?


If so then easy, are you just changing oil or need to change springs?


Just need a spring compression tool,easily made
