| Howdo!!! How's it going Engakats? Just been to look at the inside of the forks!  F$%king hell I don't know how somebody could have done that and tried to sell them on. The top adjuster has 3 pins on the inside these were missing or bent and loctited in position,some of the unit is completely missing - best till last the spring is liquid metal/loctited to the inner spacer/sleeve!!!!!!  Will stick some pics up. The forks are useless - its cheaper to get another set. Only problem being the other forks are wider, so spoke to Promach who can knock up a new top yoke.........more delay.......more expense........ Bidding on a new set of forks on flea bay (showas from a 848 - nearly went for a shiny set of ohlins R&T forks they are Very Shiny!) Well dig deep not long now! This bike will get finished!!! Cheers Pablo.....and I will need a new set of handle bars....bum!  |

| Howdo!! Yep got hold off the seller and he's just as shocked and has agreed to repay the money  Just had to keep me visa card locked away as there was a nice set of Ohlins R&Ts shiny!!! Sourced a set of 848 forks and found someone who can machine the yokes so the new forks will fit  Just means everything has delayed everything else, wanted to get the front end sorted before the final strip down and sorting the engine out. One day I won't have anything to tweek, have to ride it then  Cheers Pablo |
