slug,
Yes, it was as easy as that. 10 minute job. Raise front end off the ground first.
Remove bars, hold so they don't whack gas tank or spill front brake fluid (shouldn't be a problem though). I used my Ed for this, get another pair of hands to hold bars and make it safer.
Remove the big 22mm caps, carfeul they don't fly off the ends, hold tight when removing.
Remove spacer.
I used a piece of coat hanger to reach down about 12" and hook the spring and slide spring and the big washer out slowly as not to pull all the fluid up too.
Replace spring, tight side down, replace washer, replace long spacer. Replace cap, do other side, replace bars.
Beer break.
