9/22/2018 6:28am rebuild history is completely unknown its about time ready for a bottom end rebuild aswell when i changed the piston the con rod had abit of movement aswell :/ such a pain in the ass, also it genuinely really hard to kick the bike over, could that mean the piston didnt seet correctly or is it normal for a fresh...

9/22/2018 5:57am i agree with you, not checking if i had a feeler gauge before the build was a pretty stupid thing to do. didnt do anything with the valves as of yet, the plan of attack was just to swap the piston and rings and redo the gaskets and do the valves when i can afford to. with the valves would...

Man I don't think that's the first year(96) of that fork. The first year the lugs hung way low and they revised that the next year if I'm not mistaken. I always loved the look of that number plate/fork leg protector....you have something no one else at the track will.

9/14/2018 5:29am Yeah mate can’t wait to smoke some newer bikes on this hybrid on the weekend ?, I don’t think there a 1998 fork sadly after looking around on more forums, I believe it is a 1997 but I’m not 100% sadly

Whats the advantage of these forks over the USD forks? I know for one i would think that seals would last longer as dirt and mud isn't being splashed up on the lowers and ruining the seals

Ny best bet is that it's probably a Suzuki fork/wheel/disc/caliper/axle etc. The whole front end.. and the Suzuki triple clamp with the original Honda steering stem pressed in to use Honda bearings etc. If the stem/clamp Is press-in only or have been modified I don't know,and this is just me guessing what I would have done in this scenario (not that I would have used my time to install this fork but anyway)

Another possibility is they used allballsracing.com and their conversion bearings. That way in most cases the entire front end is swapped over, steering stem and all.
