:idea: Takli/FM and everyone, next time you are driving past Coonabarabran, stop off at the library as there you will find the "motorcycle suspension bible", that book covers everything from rebuilding to setting up to how they actually work :wink: ,for those who are too cheap to make the trip, maybe able to buy it somewhere :-s

Guess that would be quite a drive for me. HA! Think I'll see what I can find here in the USA though. Thanks for the tip.

If it's called a "Bible" the info in it must be 100% correct. Do you think authors that call thier books bibles have a complex???

Update, replacement Betors mounted body on top are working very well after 4 trials and a few days of practice and setting up an event. Very slight amount of dust sticking to area where damper rod seal support meets body. Have to see what it looks like after a good cleaning and a dusty ride.

Couple of trials and a bit of practice later the replacement Betors are working well and no indication of leaks. Guess the dust sticking to them was something left over from assembley.
