Using that guide. I measured the static front sag @ 15-16mm .
And the max travel with all my weight plus some more forcing on the front was 50mm.
Obviously im going to take the valve springs out and put fresh oil in them.
But what kind of sag should i aim for?
dampening seems fine at this moment.
I actually think the stock engine was quite far forward. Hence i might get away with the stock springs and a heavier work oil.
10 weight is the most you should use lest they lock on highspeed bumps. The AX engine & RS engine may be similar, the RS barrels are pretty heavy. Try it & see without the valve springs.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Took em out.
30-35mm of sag now. Good dampering. Haven't moved the forks down in the triple clamp yet.
Hmm odd ball sized valve springs as well couldn't help. So basically its running a standard front end now. What's good since it seems to work ok.
It is too!
Suppose he will learn one day. But not when he doesn't take advise that is given to help him.
Lol wow I dont remember them being differnt me and my mate Jamee did them maybe I might push the blame tohim

Has anyone else noticed that a MB100 engine bolts directly into a FZR250(3LN) chassis? I only have a 2KR rear wheel fitted at the moment but it looks to be only a matter of loosening off one allen key and sliding one spacer over a bit to get the sprockets to line up. Both rear engine bolts go straight through and it looks "more-or-less" right as far as sprocket alignment. I can lower it a bit more yet and I'm still tossing up about shortening the wheelbase. The FZR is about 200mm longer than my RG/MB and 100mm longer than a Honda RS125. Once I got all the steel subframes off the thing is not looking toooooo heavy. Actually I'll add about 20mm spacers to the bottom mount to get the motor attitude right.
Dyno'd my bucket at work the other day, just to see. It made 21.7hp, a drop of only .8 or so over quite a few years with still the same motor bits though I do vaguely recall changing the ring years ago.
