Shorter rear spring
(Preview)
The rear shock spring I am currently working on is 80/200 25cm long Has anyone used not a softer spring, but a slightly shorter one(23cm)??- which I am hoping, will reduce down the height slightly. (I am already using a lowering link) -- Edited by RodYorkttr on Monday 5th of June 2017 09:46:42 PM

Starter and headlight
(Preview)
The starter has been acting up for a while. Needing rocking in gear then would work. Took it apart and found sticky brushes. Now replaced from Steve. Quite a simple and worthwhile job. Slightly confusing is that the headlight is now brighter????

I'm guessing its too thin to helicoil, and a longer bolt with a nut on the end would probably foul the suspension. There is no thread inside the yoke, its co...
