I believe he is in British Columbia, so I would assume around there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m very interested in hearing the points brought up, hopefully with some long term proof.. just bought a brand new ZR2 that I plan to keep for the long haul. The things that I have heard is 1) once you do it you have to do it every year or you accelerate the rust. 2) having it done collects...

I got a set of china farings, pretty happy with the results. Cost $550 to my door. Some parts didn’t fit the best, but the bike had been down on both sides a couple of times by the looks of it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Me too, but sadly i dubt it will. Not enough people willing to pay for it new, unless they make a race series solely for it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Tamiya TL-01. With some small updates would be pretty fun to play with. Send me a message if you want to know more.. I worked as a tech in an rc shop for about 16years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Snap a couple of pics with the body off of that car, I will be able to tell you what it is. You can pm them if you want Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The forks are fine, just want to make them better. The shock is not scrap, it just needed a new rod seal, but I replaced the wiper and the shaft bushing as well. This is just a bike that I poke around on with the family while they ride quads.. I just wanted to play with the valving, cause it...

Sorry yah, I guess I’m not a machinist, I’m a fabricator that got pushed into the tool room to repair injection moulds, and found it so boring that I found a way back on the floor to help with maintenance, and build assembly machines.. have made a ton of shims, but they are always being clamped...

Well I’m a machinist, so how do you make them? I just figured at a $1 each shim it wasn’t worth it, but it’s proving very difficult to actually get them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I checked the Spaenaur catalog at work yesterday, no luck.. I want to go from one shim to many like in a real shim stack, more of a learning experience to help me understand what the different shims control in the stack. right now with just the one, it’s acting as a check valve using orfice size...

Thickness would be 0.1mm,and 0.15mm with different O.D.’s to try and make my own shim stack. Currently there is one 0.25mm shim on each side of the piston, and I’m guessing it had 30-35wt oil in it. Hard to tell exactly as there was none left when the rod seal failed, and became a pogo stick...

That’s basically what I’m looking for, but with a 12mm I.D. Currently rebuilding the rear shock because it completely failed. Checked F9 but they are sold out of most sizes, and only sell qty. of 10 I don’t need 10 of each size, and that would get expensive quick. Sent from my iPhone using...

Thank you, I will look into those places.. none of them came up in my searches (all America stuff) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yah... that’s what I’m saying. They’re not externally adjustable, but piston,and shim all the same. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yah, I get it.. it’s “junk” but it has the bones to be something decent. I just go out with family who ride quads, it’s not like I race it. Just rather be on two wheels, and if I can make it better why not? So does anyone know where to buy shims? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Trying to mess with the dampening, they are actually decent looking, but instead of a shim stack there is just one shim that is thicker then normal, and they put in a heavy weigh oil.. funny enough there is a spacer there if removed would leave room for a stack of shims. Lol Sent from my...

I was hoping someone knew where I could buy valve shims locally(or at lest Canada) I have been searching the interwebs for almost a week. I have a China dirt bike at the cottage that needed the shock/forks rebuilt, so I brought it home, and when I disassembled them I found proper valves...

I think it only counts in the last 6 months.

I would run out of power before It would pull the whole gear, now it pulls all the way to redline. If I went with a 47 tooth rear I could probably get a couple more kph out of it. I’m very happy with what I have, I modded the front forks to accept the internals of a zx6r, and gsxr1000 shock out...

I went up 3 teeth in the rear on my 2008, if I was to do it a again I would probably just have gone 2. Around town I feel that it’s better then stock, on the hwy it will pull till redline now, maybe get an extra 7kph.. but as others have said unless you need to replace them no real point to...
