Rear Shock
« on: May 10, 2026, 02:25:00 PM »
I did the service and noticed the rear shock bushes were knackered, grabbed another shock of the parts bike, spent a bit of time on the lathe and bang new ones made up and pressed them in.

Very nice. Nylon? And an interference fit?
THERE ARE OLD RIDERS, AND THERE ARE BOLD RIDERS, BUT THERE ARE DAMN FEW OLD AND BOLD RIDERS.

Keep the dirty side down.
