    Great report and pics Mick
    Looks like a great day out was had by all. :woohoo:
    Good roll up for such late notice. :huh:
    I’m lucky to get half that number even when posted two weeks in advance. :(
    Maybe they breed them tougher in Wauchope than Newy. :laugh: ;)
    Hope that stirs a few Newy boys up. :laugh: :laugh:

    Cut outer cage off with a grinder and inner race tapped off with a small hammer and chissel. :) :)
    No bearings in store at work. :(
    Will try bearing shop at Cardiff
    Then as a last resort KTM
    The original bearings seem to be made in Poland????

    I will be at work for the next three days so I am quitely confident that not only I can remove the pesky lower bearing but may have new ones to put back on. :laugh: :laugh:

    in reply to: Tyre Pressures???? #203513

    Hey Action
    Would run lowish tyre pressures for the Wato’s bash 10 to 15psi
    Man, some of the slippery slimey rocks we climb I would love to drop my rear pressure to about 5psi
    But ya’s aren’t going to be doing anything that extreme so I’d set both front and rear tyre to around the 12-15psi
    If it feels soft with you hand than thats about right. :woohoo: :woohoo: ;)
    Cheers

    Cheers TB
    Unfortunately KTM have put a rubber seal below the inner race of the bearing. ;)
    This could either keep water out or keep it in. Once the water gets in like most of our rides than thats where it stays. :blink:
    Will let ya’s know which way I went with tomorrow. :silly: :blush: :whistle: ;)

    Cheers Mick
    A tuning fork type tool may have to be designed.
    Damn bike shops probably already have one.
    I am willing to engineer and build one though.
    On saying that, it is way easier for me to take the friggin thing into work and just sort ot myself.
    If I build a tuning fork, (so to speek) will they come. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
    Cheers
    Murph (one of three) :ohmy: :laugh: :laugh:

    in reply to: Ultimate Murphsberg II #203452

    Just about to remind you that it is the same weekend as the Wato’s bash, Gotchya. ;)
    Heres an idea. :blink:
    Give the Wato’s bash a wide birth and come riding with us. :)
    Bet ya will enjoy it a whole lot more. 😆
    You and Tim are more than welcome. B)
    Keep me posted as to your plans.
    Maybe you could do a “Murhsberg” then pull up for whatever they have on offer for Sunday’s Wato bash???
    Maybe both of you could do the “Ultimate Murphsberg II” and we all go up for Sundays Wato’s mess. :huh:
    Just thinking aloud, so to speak. :unsure:
    Keep us posted on your plans man
    Cheers
