Have you dug into the Chinese dampers yet? I've got a set aswell and wanted to know if they really are gas assisted ;D ;D
I'm guessing the piggyback is just for show.
They don't look bad from far away but up close you can tell they are a bit cheap. The spring adjusters look the worst.
I been making them, should have 'stadardised on a thread though ;D (well I sort of did, just wasn't smartest idea to use 10x1.25 because I have bunch of engine bolts, etc)
Ain't got into dampers yet, been busy doing other stuff (mostly machining and polishing covers)
Won't be puling them apart for at least another week.
I will probably make a one piece lower spring seat/mounting fork.
Clutch cover is drilled and tapped for oil line, going to make some fittings when its back on motor
Going to put valves back into head later and get top end buttoned up, curved 'wedges' I made should re-locate cam back in correct position but I'll degree it anyway
I did finally finish fork brace though, put pic in machining thread
It really is an incredibly nice piece of kit, I almost want to frame it 8)
