Get a big long tray, like a paper hanger tray, or longer, Get the fork in there and pull the end off, a lot of forks are different, so I will generalize. some have a drain plug in the bottom, either way, get the oil out, pull the spring out, pull the shiny part out of the bottom, replace your seal, when going back together, the spring has to be depressed and the nut spun back on, with the pre-measured oil in there, I would get a book to explain this better, it is kinda hard to do without being there. I'm not sure what you have in the bottom for a keeper, but they are different. Hope this helps.

How much fork oil for a 2005 Honda shadow spirit take in each fork?

Stand the forks up and fill to recommended level with oil (while the forks are vertical and compressed). Add springs, spacers etc if seals were changed. Check manual weight and amount .

How do you reseal the front forks on a 97 honda shadow 1100 american classic?

The forks need to be dismantled to fit new seals, and it helps to have seal drivers and a couple of special tools to strip them down. If you want to save some dollars just take the fork legs into the bike shop, and ask them to change the seals and refill with oil. It should take them less than 1 hour if they know what they are doing.

How to replace fork seals on 1984 vt750 honda shadow

Most forks have a bolt underneath, usualy a hex key type, sometimes the nut inside the fork turns, and you then need very long socket extension to hold it tight.
Once this bolt is undone, the forks should come apart.

Sometimes, you can prise out the old seals, and slide the new ones on, without taking things apart.
