Hi, pretty sure you called us and asked but for the record we use 10wt. Did you get them in and working?

[Nick DoleMember]

How are you going with that shock Jeffro?

[Nick DoleMember]

The forks tend to leak less than spring forks as the 35 odd psi energises the seals, making them less leak prone.
However there is still oil in the outer leg so you can get oil on your brake and have a collapsed front end.
Will never make it to adventure bikes in current form, with bladders maybe but that’s factory forks only for now.

[Nick DoleMember]

Will get to them tomorrow, gotten tied up in website and trying to make head or tail of facebook, instagram and you tube . What happened to throw an ad in ADB and the phone rings ?!?

[Nick DoleMember]

Ollie, you are more adventurous than I am.
I hope you have a case saver on it. Bring the engine down to me stripped or not when you hole the engine covers after derailing the chain, i’ll weld them up so the oil stops falling out.
“good luck” and find a good used hub before you do enough hours to see if it works.

[Nick DoleMember]

I’ve used a few of them now, no problems. made one into a banana on a CRF250R, massive crash, didn’t leak. Impressed.
1.1 bar is fine, you will hold almost 1L more water, no need for the big pressure cap.

[Nick DoleMember]

Thanks for the recommendations fellas!

Been working on some 1200 stuff too

[Nick DoleMember]

Hey Leftie ive done heaps of those LC4’s for Safari, I can sort you out.

You actually going to get me to do it this time or just drain my brain and buy the parts somewhere else? Hmmmm :whistle:
Is that what happened last time? :laugh: :laugh:

[Nick DoleMember]

Hey Wayne who is doing the shock servicing?

[Nick DoleMember]

Better to get on a plane and get home, if the insurer backs out or finds a loophole he’ll be in the hole 100K or more.

[Nick DoleMember]

Hi Wayne,
the 600 shock usually has too much compression dampening, did we do the service? if we did bring the shock back and i’ll pull it down again, FOC.

[Nick DoleMember]

Now we just have to come up with a prize!

[Nick DoleMember]

We have a winner, Scotty you nailed it.
XR650R, 89 XR250 (86-95) and 89 XR600 (86 ish-00)

[Nick DoleMember]

Stock pistons are in 4 sizes, 0.25mm increments up to 1mm. I went for 0.5 as I don’t think the bore would clean up at 0.25, she’s pretty ugly.

[Nick DoleMember]

Got the cam and rockers back. Hard faced, will stand abuse.
