Got a pair of those in a plastic bag somewhere, probably going to need a rebuild so thanks for that Dave 👍

THANK YOU. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

Hi dave wow this brought back memories, we all used to run these on our tuned rd400 .....Happy days 😊

Removing the spring was why I came here!!!!

I had a set of them on my 81 GSX750 they looked good in the matching red of the bike

The brake caliper holding brackets where anodized black not painted they would turn brown over time the brake and clutch lever aswell

I always knew it as 'marzocky' Dave. Had them on my moto guzzi 850 Le mans. Proper bling back in the day😊

Hi Dave, any tips for finding the service manuals for parts that are several decades old? They sometimes seem to no longer be offered by mfrs.

If you had them on your bike back in the 80,s you had a spare bit of cash in your pocket, As they weren't cheap, Which is why a lot of people went for Koni,s as they were a damm sight cheaper,

Stradas! They did have a reputation for feeling a little 'dead' depending on the mass of the bike they were fitted to. Better than the average new Jap stock shock and the less flash Girlings but not as responsive as Konis.

Always enjoy your videos 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧

I was convinced you were going to bring out a club as it was a seal kit for the eighties...

marzokki where the best, the lemans 2 came stock with them

Yes Dave. My eyes did deceive me on second viewing.

Hi Dave. Did my eyes deceive me, or did I see WP cast into the side of the shock body?

Dave drank the Meths ages ago.

It's Marzocchi Dave😝

78% Stickstoff ( N ) , 21% Sauerstoff ( O ) and a bit of Edelgase 1% ... more like 50% is i mean hydro ( H ) is negative for oil / break-fluid

I had those on my 750 ET, mine were shagged too 🤣

I remember them ! Dam i feel bloody old

Great video and well explained. Could I please ask what size cap top tool you used? I measured it at 50mm but there is also a 48mm tool. knowing my luck I will get the wrong one. I've looked at the number stamped at the bottom of the fork leg but I can't find a tool to match that up. FL9210 2015. Thanks.

God that brings back memories used do those many times.seals used to go regularly

😂

Ordered 2 👍

Was funny to hear you say Padded Cell did your paint, he's currently got my 1987 RD350F2 bodywork for a full back to factory paint.

Morning Dave 👍🇮🇲😉

👍🏻🇨🇦

My Uncle was Nev? Alan Voase his business partner, My uncle's wife was Val? She did the book keeping etc... put those together they came up with Neval in 1974. I was there from the beginning with the 400 russian cossack motorcycles up near bridlington in Yorkshire that nobody wanted.

If you tell I can tell these problems. Where can I tell? Here or email?

3:10 . . Love the total lack of enthusiasm on Robs face . 😊

I admire Rob's cheerfulness, well done fella 👍🏻🙂 The wheels were very heavy to cope with the vast torque churned out by the mighty motor !

Being an old man, I remember struggling doing wheels in my old CB and Zed 750’s. But so thankful for progress! You have forgotten to fit the hinge in the middle of the frame and you need to film Rob setting fire to it when he connects the battery and watch the old school Suzuki wiring disappear in a cloud of smoke😂 Oh and poor action lubing your spindles!!!

Put the rear spindle in the other way round to support all the spacers on the disk side first, it makes no difference whatsoever once nipped up.

Wow brings back memories, I had the same bike back in the day 👍👍👍

can I ask where you got the wiring diagram from please

Great series Dave, I had an 1100 of the same vintage it had an alloy swing arm, air forks and shocks with damping adjustment!! Cost me £2650 brand new 😲 I was stopped by the police for excessive speed so many times I lost count.... but always let off! Those were the days. Silver with blue pinstripes it taught me all about more power than handling 😂...some brave souls raced them, when superbikes didn't have fairings and wide bars were needed to keep them kinda under control. Thanks for filming editing and posting. ATB Alistair 👍

So basically you spent some time pounding the rubber into place.... 😁

Always enjoy your videos 👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧

Try doing this type of rear wheel axle arrangement by on your own. It’s much more entertaining than 2 people who know what they are doing.😱

It's coming together nicely. Since you are enjoying it so much , I've a 1983 gx750 sitting in a shed since 2015 you are welcome to sort out, now you've got the hang of it.

Great ramblings...19 kilos!...flippen eck!😝

It's quite heartening to witness these two Bsb gophers struggle with old tech. Well done Rob. Dave, welcome to the world most of us inhabit 😁.

The washer above the oil seal looks to large to me , it looks like it will foul the seal as it’s to tight around the stanchion, and the forks are air assisted if memory serves me well pressure is about 11psi for normal riding

A well explained process with no BS. It is truly amazing the difference a fork refresh can make. I stripped and rebuilt 1998 XJ600n forks, new bushes, seals and oil and the forks are every bit as good as they need to be for a road going bike. In fact it gives a nicer ride than my Z900RS.

I've got a 2014, and without doubt the best bike I've ever owned, just the soundtrack alone is amazing, I don't ride it as much as I should, it puts a big smile on my face every time I ride it.

2025 Rapid Honda move to supersport does that mean NO pathway Superbike team in BSB Dave Franco are doing?? A few teams already leaving the series

Not really fork related… What’s Franco doing next season?

Me puedes apoyar con los torques de biela y bancada? Muchas gracias

Take the rocker cover off makes it loads easier to remove and install engine and the L shaped splined thingy is for the rear brake I to bought one of these during Covid all in bits

Club racing won't be viable to most very shortly.
