Changed the fork oil. Question - the nut under the adjusters on the damper rod sits on top if the spring seat, right?

Checked the plugs. Both were fine but the front was rusty outside. Silicone grease on the plugs caps and new plugs (NGK Iridium DPR9EIX-9) ordered.
Spent most of the day cleaning up after my ride on the Tuna yesterday. Fabrics in the washing machine, Leathers saddle soap and leather food. The bloody radiator needs to come off to get cleaned up. What a PITA.

I took my old shock to HM Racing for a little spruce up.
New oil, gas, a K Tech spring to suit my weight and some shim stack tweaks.
The spring is slightly bigger in diameter than the old one; hope it clears everything.
The spring is now red; was yellow-
Latest:
Installed it today, regreased shock linkages, but it got cold in the unheated garage so I'll put the bodywork on next week.

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
