What rear shocks are you using?

Hi Jimmy, can't recall now, it was a couple of years ago. Seem to think YSS, couple of inches longer than standard; I had the forks set at the max length so wanted the shock length to be similar

Hi, I am the owner of this bike presently, I have owned it for a a couple of years and bought it off the guy who you sold it to, sadly it was left outside by him so many bits had gone rusty on it and the fuel tank was filled whith rust, did you by any chance have the cases apart at any point? I have the engine apart right now and have since I bought the bike as the gearbox went caput on the first test ride 😂, I have bought a second engine to sort out and use as a spare while I get this one finished, love the long travel suspension on it as it really lifts it up higher👍 sadly all the paint on the cases has flaked off so I have stripped them back to bare metal and will be rebuilding the engine throughout this week 👍 thought you would like a update 👍

Hi, the update is much appreciated. Can't recall splitting the motor, might have slipped a LH crank seal in (could be imagining it as well, did a few single cylinder two strokes around that time) Shame it has been allowed to deteriorate, it was never a show winner, but was this basis of a good rolling restoration. The rear shocks are slightly over standard length, and the fork were at the 'highest' settings, I think there are three options. Did ride it a couple of times and for a small bike it had a bit of giddy-up. Hope things go well with your resto.

@@paulbell9025 reso is going well right now, just ordering the last bearing needed to put the engine back together and need to fix some holes in the fuel tank, all the rusty bits have been stripped back and painted but the patina painted parts I have kept original. Hopefully it should be riding in a week or so l, if not the spare engine I have orderd will be stripped and made to work then it will run on that while I get this engine back together 👍. Did you put a new piston into this engine and do you know if it was oversized or not?

@@paulbell9025 ahh thanks wonderd cus it looked pretty new when I was taking it apart, there was a weird thing whith the main cases that someone had used actual clear bath silicone as the sealant and a lot of the insides were pretty gunky 😂
