Life is full of little ups and downs

(25-09-16, 01:56 PM)Frosties link Wrote: If you look at the length of spring Tommy I would start with about an inch of spacer first go. Only change one thing at a time so either spacers by itself or heavier oil. Changing 2 things gives too many variables to think about. It's only time we're talking about so bit by bit and decent test ride after each tweak. Good luck and we need updates  :thumbup


Thanks for the advice Frosties (You little Tiger you) but it makes sense, one thing at a time and then the changes can be accurately assessed, rather than doing a number of things and not being able to pinpoint the thing that has made the most significant difference.
15 weight Silkolean Pro Fork[size=1em] oil first and give it a[/size] couple of weeks, to assess. and move on to more pre-load by adding spacers/large penny washer to the tops of the springs. then maybe lifting the fork [size=1em]stanchion/tubes [/size][size=1em]by 15mm [/size][size=1em]through the yokes to add a bit more down-force at the front end and hopefully sharpen up the turn in.[/size]
[size=1em]Bit at a time is good advice. Thanks.[/size] :kiss  

I don't think the old Fazer FZS600 steers or handles badly, it's just not inspiring, and, all the confidence boosters this old fart can get will be gratefully received. I feel the chicken strips are laughing at me now, the tyres have done about 600 miles and I still have 3/4" of virgin rubber on both side of the back tyre.

Me dreaming on a Tyco, Mrs said get off it and act your bloody age not you shoe size, they can be so hurtful at times.
But in all fairness to her she cuts me a lot of slack in life, bless her. :rolleyes
