Well they had done superbly well...

I knew they need doing eventually. These were 10+ years old when I bought them and this has been my trusty steed for ~10+ years, once daily then stored for 4 years now just a weekend warrior.

Painless process to strip and rebuild and the kits are readily available on eBay.

All cleaned, rebuilt, new oil and refitted.

These are fully adjustable and I must admit, have just been on whatever setting they came with off the MX bike I bought them from. Since this is a road warrior, I've stiffened the suspension up a fair amount. I'll be interested in seeing how this now performs on the road!
The last ride out I did ~70 odd miles, the handling was becoming very poor. So I'm looking forward to the next adventure on it.
