I am chuffed to be able to report that the joint project that TTR Steve and I did to rebuild a TTR250 rear shock (and to document the process so as to create a user guide) was successful
The guide is now online click here and, as usual with new guides, feedback will be appreciated!
Now that new shocks are no longer available from Yamaha, it is important that owners have a way to repair their existing shock. If an owner doesn't feel able to do the work themselves then they can find out from the guide the correct parts to buy to give their mechanic to do the job for them.
Is there anyone out there with a shock to rebuild willing to test the instruction?
Alternatively, is there anyone that has done the job themselves and is willing to cast their eyes over the guide and feed back some (hopefully!) constructive criticism? If so, that would be really great
Should have the kits in the shop by the end of the weekend. This is good news that me and Brian did this, as new shocks are no longer available from Yamaha and it is good that owners can check the pressure in their shocks, before they go to a rebuild stage.
