He went over some of the changes he's made in the shims and oil dialing in the forks. I think he's got it nailed. We set the sag and I haven't needed to make any adjustments. There should be quite a difference when you get it back.

Went out for a ride today and on one of the really bad roads (where they had saw cut and patched dozens of sections in the asphalt) I could enjoy the ride instead of having to be conscious of all the ridges and buckles. So nice for a change.

Kit maybe this thread would be good in the Maintenance tips and tricks sub forum?

Just an idea, maybe to make it more accessible?

cheers
Dave

No, Kit that's a different thread. It details the process of upgrading or maintaining the forks and has always been in Maintenance Tips & Tricks forum.

This thread covers the popular options available to those wanting to upgrade. It would be helpful to have it somewhere where it can be easily found.
