Air adjusted fork on my Ten
Hello all
As I wrote earlier, I had an accident here in Sudan in which the front fork snapped and was fixed with new inner pipes from some other Yamaha (don't know which one). After somewhat recovering (both me and the bike) I managed to ride here to Khartoum where I've been getting the bike into better shape.
However, I'm not completely happy with the front fork. If I hit a bump the fork makes a 'clang' sound when it rebounds. Could it be something to do with the rebound damping? These new inner pipes are adjusted with compressed air and I don't know **** about that system. I've tried with 1 bar and 1,5 bar pressure but that has no effect on the rebound. Don't know about the amount of oil in the fork yet (if there is any).
Does anyone have any clue about what air pressure/amount of oil to use with this type of fork? Any other ideas anyone?
I know I could just DHL myself new original parts but I'm not giving up on this fork yet.
Happy Christmas
Jami
