-The 39mm Fork Caps need a 1-3/​8"​(1.375"​) socket or Cap Wrench. A usable equivalent is a 35mm(1.378"​) size. It's a good idea to wrap masking tape, electrical tape or duct tape (depending on the thickness of the tape) around the chrome cap to protect if from marks.

 For the models that use the same Fork Service Kit, one might expect the upper & lower slide tubes to be functionally compatible across all years (that'​s an assumption - there might be something that IS incompatible - but unknown). For the models that use the same Fork Service Kit, one might expect the upper & lower slide tubes to be functionally compatible across all years (that'​s an assumption - there might be something that IS incompatible - but unknown).
