Hi Rob
Thanks for the guidance - I was worried that the bolt would hit the ABS pump so hopefully tomorrow night will make the change as the ebay one arrived last night and seems in good order but has yellow spring instead of silver.... (we have a couple of KTMs/Husabergs for enduro and seem to change a lot of springs to get the weight right). Old one in bin then.
No damping makes for a grim ride especially in the frost. New tires (have flattened off) and new shock should do the job.
Have you rebuilt the front end as 43,000 is a long way commuting and am sure the oil is emulsified by now. Is it straightforward?
By the way the dog bone adjuster on the other post is very smart. Lathe at home or work?
Thanks again
