MD Racing Hi all, been a while since I've been on here but thought I'd let you know the problems the garage has found with my 998 which had been laid up for a few years since MD Racing worked on it. MD was the last garage to work on the bike and nothing had been done to it since. Verbatim from current garage Hi, sorry to say there's a problem with your forks. They don't work. The rebound damper has a spring and valve missing, plus a fault with the cartridge not allowing the damper rod to travel freely, they really need to go to a specialist to be sorted out. You also have a non standard preload spacer fitted and your preload was wound fully in. The cost will be approx £150 labour plus parts and carriage. Please let me know asap if you want me to go ahead as the bike will be stuck on the ramp while they are away. Turnaround time will be about a week. I can't prove it was MD Racings fault, but since the bike was fine prior to going there and hadn't ridden since its fair to say it was (especially as they supposedly serviced the shock and forks) Just a heads up for anyone considering using them Cheers |
