Replaced mine at 100000 mi. They were still good but did it anyway just wanted to do some service to the valk.now I want to replace the steering head bearings. No need to but fork seal is leaking so I'll do the head at the same time, 130000 miles.

Took mine out during a tire/driveshaft service at 60k,they looked great so i packed them with Bel-Ray grease stuck em back in.I don't think I'll bother them for another 50-60k.
