FXR forks

I wonder what the cheapo chinese copies are like. Probably ok for a bike that does about 1500km a year.

They will copy anything, we get chinese knockoff pneumatic parts come into work when there machines dont work properly or at all, some dodgy crap out there. cheeky pricks ,the parts look genuine(ish) till you take them apart
But then there must be some chinese companys THAT do make good parts and want resale and supply back up service and spare parts

Hi Jase. It brought a big smile to my face hearing about the RD mods - still the same eh?! I've still to start rebuilding my 350 YPVS - it WILL happen this year.

Hey there Damien
I bought a 83 YPVS350, best you get started on yours so we can race each other. The engine may end up in my TZR for a pre 89 bike, not sure yet

Well, mine's an '87. The handling is way better than my old '82 (I think it was '82 - the original). I have and XR400 valve regrind to do this weekend then work on my FXR150 (crash damage from last weekend). RD comes after all that! Looking forward to racing with you.

LC's were 80 to 82, RZ or RD YPVS(UK spec) were 83 on.
The 87 F2 YPVS are definatly the better bike, nicer suspesion, brakes and looks.

Are you doing the last round of the pacific series? Your RD/RZ will be eligable for postys and Pro Twin open. There is alot of 2 stroke twins running in pro twin open now. Had 2 LC's, 2 TZ 350's, a RD350 YPVS(UK model F2) and RGV's and RG's running. Cool fun !

When and where? The web site is not up-to-date.

The RD is not a priority at this stage so I'm not sure.
