Just had to rebuild my front tube and sliders on my 2005 superglide FXDCI, 6500 miles on it, seems the used bike I bought from bikerbill.com had been wrecked , tubes bent 60 thousand and 100 thousand out. sliders had been run over by a belt sander and just looked bad. got new fork tube assmb. and sliders, installed tonight, keep reading about checking run out on fron axle, locked it up in lathe and hand turned with a dial caliper on it. showing 13 thousands out.... should I replace it also? ANy thoughts... Thanks

If it were me I would replace it especially since you did all of that other work. And that sucks getting a wrecked bike and not being aware....

Its why I never buy used when it comes to motorcycles! Life is too short, precious and valuable to trust anyone else's miles on the odometer!
