monster 900 marzocci forks rebuild ?
I am think of purchasing a 1999 monster 900 with
marzocci forks, I read on the net that you cannot rebuild these ?, can anybody offer any advice as whether this should
stop me buying ?

The haynes manual says you can. I'd be surprised if you couldnt.

All 900 Monsters came with Showa forks.
