Greenie Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 how do you find the handling and comfort since its been lowered? i was thinking of doing mine but im unsure of the implications? did you have to certify it or do anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyWithAviators Posted March 9, 2014 Author Share Posted March 9, 2014 I got your private message the first time dude, give me a chance to write something. Have a good read of how the suspension works then go from there. The ride quality is crap when low and no you don't need a cert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuyWithAviators Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 Um different for each shot. Between 2 seconds for quick things like the final torquing of bolts and 10 seconds longer like piston assembly.

DrSassafrass Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Oil slick happened to me when I was 17 in my '66 1100. I had the old non cartridge oil filter that must have blocked somehow, ripped the central bolt and thread out of the block. knackered the canister, but retapped a new bolt and got a few pick a part bits. All fixed for about $4 + oil and filter which hadn't been changed in about two years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Tim I got mine from Australia but I wish I knew about that crowed Corbie just posted, they're about $20 cheaper than what I bought. Will definitely be going there next time.
