Interesting - I only have 3-3/4 (3.75) full turns on either side, R/C. Piero, Elvisto, can you confirm there should be 8 full turns like on Hedonisms preproduction cartridges?compression and rebound should have 8 turns and I received the bike with 4 turns each, but this is just standard.
it is almost impossibile to have a standard set up, this will range a lto according to road condition, tyres, temperature and the use you intend to do with the bike.
I'm now on 1 turn softer preload, 5 turns on compression (to avoid "end") and 3 turns on rebound to have extension soon
I did not adjusted the sag
Too sad, you really miss an immediate improvement to your ride in regards of comfort and control, especially on the high speed/frequency bumps and cracks... Even on the freaking cobblestone around my hometown that seriously almost kicked me out of the seat when I hit it first time... Think it over, wait for a rainy day and go for it, it is well worth it...I started the job yesterday, It's now turned into a winter project job
Left leg has a retaining grub screw holding the slider to the bottom casting, they peen it over to stop it coming out, well it wouldn't , even after warming it up it wouldn't budge,so I need to drill it out
Sorry I can't give you an update, I reassembled and went a ride out,to calm down
I also had a problem with 3 of the screws holding the front mudguard onI ended up re tapping them out, That bloody red loctite is a pest to say the least,

Have you been in the mood yet?Quite right Hui, I went for the most difficult side first, left side, thats the rebound side, I drained the oil and it was a little dirty, So when I refilled it, rather than use my new Ohlins oil, I had some 15 weight BMW oil and used that, Would you believe itthe forks performed a lot better on the bumps, so perhaps it's the rebound side that doesn't perform as it should,
Argh well, I'll get it done when I'm back in the mood![]()
Thanks.Yes , All fitted , done and dusted,very pleased with the result,
Sorry I didn't / haven't done a how to guide, but I did make a tool to remove the tube from the bottom casting , you are welcome to use it should you go down the Andreani route,
