alternative is to undo allen bolt with a rattle gun whilst fork is complete - sometimes works.
or a broom handle rammed into it.
of course if you just want the tool then this isn't a lot of help...............

Hi Philippe,

Thanks for the tips, but those are for the z1000. The Z1(a)(b) are different. See the picture i've sent with this post.
The one's on the picture are out off stock and aren't producing any new one any time soon
The one on the left is for Z1.

The tool on the left is for the z900a4 z1000a1. I ordered one from the states it’s a Suzuki part but made my own as it took two months for it to arrive. And arrived the day after I had finished rebuilding them

It took some time and effort but I got an original front fork socket tool 57001-142. Everybody thanks for their advice and help. I first ordered the suzuki part that Deka told me. I ordered it with CMSNL. But after a few days the part was in backorder. It takes until november till it will be available again. I still have the order standing. Since then i've been looking for one and finally found this one in Canada.
