No parts yet.
Well i am still waiting on parts
I received the bottom valve o-rings from Gas Gas but unfortunately they are out of stock of the rebound piston ring. Following Bergerhags suggestion i ordered them from marzocchi uk....but the order is still pending. So much for special delivery. So annoying to be waiting on suppliers

Gas Gas are out of stock and will not re order for two weeks due to the trial six day event in scotland. Marzocchi are out of stock and will not expect a delivery for 4 weeks.

I have not tried anywhere else. Is Steve Plain a GG dealer? i recognise the name from somewhere. I will have to have a phone around in the morning. Never thought of a husky dealer i will try that too. I think i will have more chance of finding rocking horse s**t I saw on ebay someone breaking a FSE450 they wanted £320 for forks clamps and rear wheel.....tempting. They listed Ohlins forks but they sure looked like shivers to me. thanks darren

Having just posted on Klausens post of Rebound no adjustment i thought i would up date this post.
After calling everyone under the sun to find one of these Rebound piston rings i have left it like this. I am waiting on GG uk and marzocchi to see who comes up with the parts first. Disturbingly after speaking to marzocchi uk and returning to the parts list on their web site it appears that the rebound piston ring has dissapeared off there list Any way. Whilst waiting on these parts i took my inner rod (with the rebound piston attached) also the bottom valve down to MCT (suspension tuners) He looked at the rebound piston ring and said there is nothing wrong with it and the teflon coating is only microns thick, more likely to wear the piston tube than the teflon (interesting) He also stated that the shims on both Rebound and Compression stack were miles too thin and its not suprising i have no damping. He said that he has done a few marzocchi shiver forks from new and they all are very soft. I was advised to fill with 10w oil and if that did not work mix some 15w with it. If all else fails he could revalve for me to what ever viscosity i wanted to run in the forks. So I have removed four shims out of the forks (the poxy 11mm ones.) Filled with oil to 130mm air gap with 10w oil. I have marginal difference when adjusting the clickers from fully in to fully out. I have test ridden the bike it feels much the same as it did before. Terrible. I just hope these parts turn up soon.

Is that a bleed shim off the piston face (11x0.2) ???? If so....pull it! And I can't make any sense out of the BV stack either "that's a weird arrangement of shims. looks like a 2 stage stack with a bleed shim, way over done. What about this BV 22x10 11x10 20x10 19x10 18x10 17x10 12x20 |
