Technical / Works shock problem
« on: May 23, 2006, 11:07:36 PM »
Rode the Oddy on Sunday and found that the lower shock body became separated from the shock top!!  The part that screws together.  (These shocks do NOT have ressies.)

I removed it from the machine and cleaned it all up.  My question is:  Will a simple recharge work?  Or might I have lost some parts?  I don't know what all is in there, but everything that's attached to something is still in tact.  I'm having camera difficulties right now, so I can't post pics until maybe tomorrow.

UPDATE: I know the pics aren't great, but hopefully someone can help me.  Big ride this next week, so I don't have time to be sending the shock off.  Need to know if it can be just recharged; I will have access to a nitrogen bottle and gauges.  May need a crash course in shock recharging.

This is "no shit" mother nature at work, melting a bottle of ice at my very own house.  LMAO

Technical / Limiting Straps
« on: April 19, 2006, 12:23:25 PM »
Well it's getting almost time to ride and I really need to get crackin' on fabbing up some limiting straps for the rear end.  

(For those not aware, if/when you snap an axle, the risk of bending the crap out of your rear shock is also high.  This actually happened to me and my Works shock out at LS last May.  To remedy this, some have made limiting straps that only let the swingarm travel so far, thus saving the shocks.)

Who has done this?  How did they do it?  What did they use?  And of course, i MUST have pics.  Thanks.  Fed

Technical / HRD PowerBloc Clutch
« on: April 03, 2006, 11:39:34 AM »
Took my drive clutch off this weekend and upon inspection, found that the "D" slot on the clutch cover is damaged. Almost as if the shaft has been slipping by and pushing material away from the flat spot. The flat side of the shaft is fine and undamaged. Anyone had this happen to them? What's a good fix? Can you buy just a cover? Fed
