Hmmm... lost it again. Knew I should have saved the link. Will let you know mate. But was a pdf of the origional KHI service manuel. Frony end is sound and a good base to set-up from now.
But digressing slighly, hows this...
Stripped the forks and was gob smacked at what i found. 189 odd ml of oil in one side, about 100 in the other - all of it was like mud. One fork was about 5mm further though the top triplw than the other. One side three mnore rings of preload than the other and the comp damp was miles apart. Who the fuck pulls this stuff aprt if they don't know what they're doing? You would atlest put it back the way it was before pulling it apart, wouldn't you? There are some Farcking retards in this world.
Anyway, all fixed and i rebuilt and changed oils seals in the front brakes while i was at it. Man what a diference. Really does feel like a mini 7.
It is far better to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even if chequered with failure, than to take rank with those who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, as they live in grey twilight that knows no victory nor defeat.
