    I have a 2008 TE 610. When the bike is off the ground and I grab the bottom of the fork legs and move them back and forth there is a little movement in them. Does anyone elses do the same or are they worn out already. I don't have many miles on the bike. If so, what parts do I need to fix this.

    Also, if I have to fix this I want to put in the comp adjusters that it didn't come with. Where can I get these adjusters from?

    A little movement in the forks is normal. You do not want any in the head bearings though. As for the compression adjusters we have them in stock. Email me and I'll get you some. (Motosportz)

    The movement is in the fork legs with the weight off the bike and the forks extended. The tripple clamps and head bearing are tight. There has been movement I think since I got the bike. I have had other bikes with no play that is why I thought maybe there was something wrong.

    Mine does the same thing your talking about, have heard of several others that do it. No worries, put the clickers in and hit the trail.

    The WPs on my KTM do this a little and that is with brand new bushings. I second adding the clickers regardless as it is relatively inexpensive to do.
