Gen1 compression damper seized
#2
you're not the first to have hit this problem. They don't sell the item separately (i did a thread on this issue, having written to Yamaha and been fobbed off, a couple of years back - see below) and will only sell them as part of the fork lower assembly. So far as I know no one else (like K-Tech) does a replacement either.
In the end i had to go to a breakers yard to get a replacement that wasn't seized. What irritated me a little was that, somewhere in Japan, there's a box full of these things...

Someone sent me a postcard picture of the earth. On the back it said, "Wish you were here."
