Re: fork spring comppresion tool
For which model of goldwing is this for? I just replaced the seals on my GL1800 and did not need a spring compressor at all.. Are you sure you need one?

Re: fork spring comppresion tool
Many people have manufactured their own fork spring removal tools using pieces of wood and threaded rod. I decided that I do this often enough that I would spring for the actual Honda tool. It works on several different models of Honda motorcycles (including all Goldwings) and is a quality (if not overpriced) tool. I bought mine for $138 from Cyclemax. The part number of the tool is: 07KMF-MT20300
If you visit the Cyclemax OEM Parts section and type in the part number of the tool, it will come up with the item and price.

The tool has a reversible driver on the end of the threaded rod, which can be reversed by pulling it off the rod and pushing it back on the way you require.

You can see it in use in How to rebuild your front forks

Wow, Honda has really jacked the price up on it. I'm glad I got mine when I did.
